The Archaeology and Anthropology Internships, Scholarships, Books, Tools and Resources page was created to provide you with helpful resources before and during your archaeological career. I have included the popular Top Archaeology and Anthropology Schools, Universities, and Colleges page, US Archaeology and Anthropology Schools and their Disciplines, as well as several other guides and resources.
Archaeology and Anthropology Guides (Ancient Digger's Most Popular Help Articles)
US Archaeology and Anthropology Schools and their Disciplines –I created this comprehensive list of Archaeology and Anthropology Schools in the United States and their Disciplines to assist students looking into the fields of anthropology and archaeology. When I first started looking for schools I quickly figured out, it was overwhelming. I had to visit dozens of websites just to gather the information I needed, to determine whether the college or university had the archaeology discipline I was interested in.
Best Graduate and Undergraduate Schools, Universities, and Colleges for Archaeology and Anthropology – I have compiled several lists in order to help you determine the top colleges and universities with the best anthropology and archaeology undergraduate and graduate programs and schools.
Best Schools for Biological and Evolutionary Anthropology and Archaeology – These schools for Biological and Evolutionary Anthropology and Archaeology are not ranked in any specific order, as I believe they contribute to these fields in their own unique ways. I have put the main area of focus next to the college name, but please remember, many of the biological and evolutionary programs are combined into one department at some schools.
Best Graduate Schools for Linguistics – Many students find phonics, semantics, and pragmatics of linguistics programs far too fascinating to pass up as a degree goal. Studying linguistics provides a scientific foundation for broad-based study of human communication that is usually broken into three main subfields, including language meaning, language context, and language form. Within these subfields, graduate schools for linguistics offer students study possibilities involving evolutionary, social, and historical aspects.
Best Graduate Schools for Classical Archaeology – Classical archaeology is a deeply interesting subject that has enchanted researchers and students for ages. Quite simply, it is the study of archaeological excavations from Ancient Greece and Rome. However, some only consider it to be the study of the Roman and Athenian civilizations, but it can include other subjects such as Minoan and Crete civilizations. This field involves not only excavations in the Mediterranean, but the analysis and research into the artifacts, deciphering the ancient texts, and learning about the history of the region. Completion of graduate programs for classical archaeology can mean careers in teaching and writing at major research universities, working at a museum as a curator, or even doing research and excavations.
Guide To Archaeology and Anthropology Graduate School 101 – I recently attended a seminar featuring Dr. John Walker, Professor Peter Sinelli, and Dr.John Schultz from the University of Central Florida. The seminar focused on the Do's and Don'ts of applying to graduate school for archaeology and anthropology and was organized by Hominids Anonymous Anthropology Club.
Beginner's Guide To A Career in Anthropology and Archeology – Are you interested in human history? Do you wonder where we came from and how we got here? If so, you might want to consider a career in either archaeology or anthropology. This article will give a detailed look at these career fields and help you decide if one of them is right for you.

Archaeology and Anthropology Scholarships and Funding
Archaeology school can come with a cost, and so can research. For those students who continue their studies, and require additional funding to research a certain area or discipline, there are numerous funding opportunities available.Scholarship Search Database – I have used Fastweb's services for years for my own students. The application process can get a little lengthy, but they have so many opportunities that often go unclaimed.
