Why choose? Prepare yourself for a career at both academic and CRM sector
Archaeology is going through profound changes. In the post-Covid world, academic positions are highly competitive and rare. In contrast, Cultural Resource Management (CRM) positions are plentiful and a provide rewarding careers. CFS goal is to train students for both possibilities, offering field schools of the the highest academic quality, as well as strong emphasis on skills relevant to the CRM sector.
Who are we?
The Center for Field Sciences was created to serve the evolving, modern needs of field work across disciplines. We recognize that training for academic careers is important. At the same time, we recognize that the protection, preservation, and management of our shared cultural and natural heritage is shifting to the government and Environmental Consulting sector. Therefore, training must include elements that enable program graduates to seek careers both within and outside academia. To do so, each program will train participants in a range of transferable skills, list those on the syllabus and grade at the end of the program. Our goal is to create the leaders of cultural and natural heritage protection of the future.
