Geoarchaeology Concentration in Geology
The geoarchaeology concentration allows students majoring in anthropology,archaeology or geology to explore the connections among these fields with respect
to how our human ancestors interacted with past environments, and how traces
of human behavior are preserved in the physical environment. In geology, the geo-archaeology concentration consists of 13 courses: GEOL 101 or 102 or 103, 202, 205, 270, 328, another 200- or 300-level geology course, and 403: CHEM 101 or 103, and 104; two semesters of math, statistics or computational methods; either ARCH 101 or ANTH 101; and one 200- or 300-level elective from among current offerings in Anthropology or Classical and Near Eastern Archaeology. Paperwork for the concentration should be filed at the same time as the major work plan.
