Senior Work
Although we do not require fieldwork for the major, many undergraduates seek those experiences. Through internships, research assistantships, study abroad, and senior projects, we encourage students to explore their disciplinary interests outside the classroom.
Recent Projects
These are just a few of the recent projects our students have undertaken.
Paige Osgood ’23
Paige excavated at the Vasagård site, Bornholm island, Denmark. Vasagård consists of megalithic tombs, dolmens, and passage graves dated to c. 3500 BC.
Dan Krugman ’21
Daniel did research at the Mirieyi Refugee Settlement in Adjumani Province.
Oshin Bista ’20
Oshin was in Niš, Serbia, working on her thesis, which focused on gender performance in urban spaces.
