The Field School was established to address the very real need for ‘hands-on’ archaeological training for students of archaeology and anthropology. To this core component was added introductory academic courses in Irish and British archaeology, all of which are accredited by the National University of Ireland at Galway.
All of our Modular Courses are fully accredited.
