Archaeology is a fascinating major that involves the study of human history and prehistory through the analysis of material remains. As an archaeology student, you’ll learn about the methods and techniques used to excavate and interpret artifacts and other cultural evidence, such as ancient buildings, tools, and artwork. You’ll also gain a deeper understanding of the social and cultural context of past societies, and explore how they interacted with their environment.

This major can lead to careers in academia, cultural resource management, museums, or government agencies, and is ideal for those who have a passion for history and a desire to uncover the mysteries of the past. If you are an archeology student you’ll probably also want to make your education as affordable as possible. That’s why we’ve profiled the top archaeology scholarships below. Keep on reading to learn more about the award amounts, scholarship deadlines, and eligibility requirements.
