The Master’s Degree Programme in Archaeology and Ancient Cultures offers its students a unique opportunity to integrate theoretical training with hands-on experience in the field and in the laboratory. In addition to the courses included in the curriculum, students may take part in thematic laboratories, applied research activities, and excavation or survey campaigns, which allow them to explore specific aspects of the discipline and to develop the technical and methodological skills essential to the archaeological profession.
These activities are an integral part of the training programme: they not only enrich students’ scientific preparation but also contribute to the acquisition of university credits (CFU).
At the end of each activity, students receive an official certificate signed by the laboratory supervisor (valid for 2 CFU) or by the excavation director (valid for 4 CFU). This certificate is required for the validation of training activities:
-
Laboratory and Excavation 1 (ARIS, Italian-language curriculum), for which students must register for the exam sessions of Prof. Antonella Coralini or Prof. Isabella Baldini;
-
Laboratory and Excavation 2 (ARIS, Italian-language curriculum), for which validation is handled by Prof. Enrico Giorgi;
-
Fieldwork and Laboratories 1 and 2 (ACRA, English-language curriculum), for which validation is handled by Prof. Maurizio Cattani.
