Student Testimonials
"What better way to spend a summer as an undergraduate student of archaeology than frolicking in the desert of northern Chile? Being part of the Tarapaca Project field school was by far one of the most wonderful and impactful experiences of my life, and has truly inspired me to pursue archaeology in my future studies. To have the opportunity to meet and work with the students and scholars on the project and get to know them as the amazing people that they are was invaluable. I'll never look at my professors quite the same way, now that I know what they're like in the field. I definitely recommend field school, and this one in particular, to any undergraduate interested in archaeology."

"I had a fabulous time in Tarapaca . . . The only way to truly learn archaeology
is to spend time in the field. Not only did the Tarapaca program teach me more
about field methods in archaeology than any textbook, I was able to work with
an amazing group of students and professors. If you love archaeology and want
to spend your summer surrounded by beautiful sights and culture, this program
is for you."
