In Australia, a degree in archaeology is offered at a few different uni's - La Trobe, UniMelb and Monash in Melbourne and ANU in Canberra - there may be more that I am unaware of though. At LaTrobe Uni, you can study Archaelogy through a Bachelor of Arts, thus the only pre-requisite was English, however check for any compuslory pre-requisites at the uni you want to attend as it may vary.

I found that history is a very helpful subject to take in highschool as it can help you put archaeological finds into a historical perspective. As you develop in the course, you will learn about ways to date items such as carbon dating, thermo-lumiessence (sp?) etc...In this regard science subjects can be quite helpful.

Sorry I can't be of more help, the units I did in arhcaeology were a few years ago now..

hi, I did the path that Mavis describes, undergraduate diploma in archaeology the place I went on a uni fieldschool and realised I enjoyed to dig. saved digging as much as i ought to throughout summers and by using my professor and senior human beings I met in the sphere I have been given an probability to look at some artefacts for a masters diploma. This became right into a PhD and that i now coach slightly for a similar college and help run field college in the summertime, at the same time as attempting to submit as much as i will and word for each job/investment probability there is (artwork is rather, very scarce only now). There are different procedures however, a lot of my old uni acquaintances now artwork in commercial archaeology, the place you're employed via a unit who're gotten smaller to excavate in lots of cases via shape agencies. The artwork varies, yet in the united kingdom pay is undesirable and many agencies are reluctant to furnish everlasting contracts. optimistically however the time you end uni the job difficulty could have picked up. provide it a attempt to go on a field college in the summertime. in case you establish you do no longer like it you are able to continuously replace your diploma after first 3 hundred and sixty 5 days (i began out doing anthropology and altered to on the instant archaeology). ultimate of success! hi returned, maximum universitis have archaeology artwork rigidity that run field colleges, the place they take pupils on their study initiatives. You do in lots of cases ought to pay yet there is likewise in lots of cases a supply to conceal return and forth and lodging costs. it would rely on what college you visit as to what field colleges are obtainable, besides the reality that maximum will additionally take pupils from different universities. I do advise field colleges that are run via college artwork rigidity, as there you're particular to verify excavation recommendations, recording, positioned up excavation and different artwork in touch. especially circumstances, on inner maximum excavations you're little extra effective than a bucket monkey, and could study little or no to boot pushing a wheelbarrow. Vindolanda at Hadrian's Wall do have possibilities for diggers (I did it myself as an undergrad), this is exceedingly good, low-fee and maximum universities will settle for that venture as a great one. to illustrate, I went to Edinburgh, the place there have been field colleges in Cyprus, Italy, Romania and Scotland obtainable.
