Traditional interests in art, architecture, and historical contexts are now complemented with theoretical orientations from the social sciences and analytical contributions of the natural sciences. The study of archaeology can therefore provide a useful and appreciated background for many careers, such as publishing, tourism, law, management and finance, international relations, government service, communications, cultural heritage management, and museum administration. The Minor program in Archaeology offers students the chance to enrich their qualifications for their future vocations, and to dive into the marvels of the ever-fascinating and dynamic past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The total course program consists of six courses (18 credits). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The following four courses are required (to be taken in any order):<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>HART 111.
