Archaeology short courses

Fieldwork is one of the things we do best.

Flinders offers a variety of intensive short courses to domestic and international students, professionals and the general public. Short courses cover a range of fieldwork skills in surveying, site recording, excavation and rock art, laboratory analysis of the human skeleton, human osteology, stone artefacts and maritime archaeology, as well as specialised areas such as maritime materials conservation and cultural heritage and the law.

Note: current Flinders University students will enrol for fieldwork as they do for all topics.

We offer more field schools in more locations than any other archaeology department in Australia.

Previous field schools have taken students to Arnhem Land, Vietnam, Tasmania, the Eyre Peninsula, Port Philip and western Queensland.
