Field Schools + Field Programs

Our field school and field program courses are designed to allow you to travel and work with a faculty member to participate in field research. You will gain valuable hands-on experience in archaeological digs, ethnographic research, and other anthropological areas. Different field school and field program experiences are offered each summer.

Undergraduate Teaching Assistants

An undergraduate teaching internship gives you the chance to work closely with an Anthropology faculty member, help out your peers, and acquire valuable teaching experience. For information about how to set up your internship, contact Professor Sarah Osterhoudt at srosterh@iu.edu.

Research Assistants

If you have a particular interest that aligns with a faculty member’s research, you may be able to assist with research in a one-on-one environment. These may be paid or unpaid positions, and are exciting and valuable. You may contact the professor directly, or begin with our academic advisor.
