Temple University Summer Research Programs
This program is open to students of all academic backgrounds, and particularly for those studying science and art-related disciplines.
https://studyabroad.temple.edu/programs/temple-faculty-led-summer-programs/temple-summer-sicily
Prerequisites:
- Open to qualified, upper-level students who have completed significant coursework in Biology or a related science field
- Must have completed the pre-requisites, or their equivalent, for the required course, Biology 3364 (please reach out to Temple to get more details)
https://studyabroad.temple.edu/programs/temple-faculty-led-summer-programs/temple-summer-siena
Because the nature of the program emphasizes a small team atmosphere, program space is limited. Preference will be given to students of anthropology, archaeology, architecture, art history, classics, or history. It is important to be very motivated and be prepared to work from early in the morning and in the summer heat. Team spirit and social skills are paramount to successful completion of the program and a good excavation campaign.
