Bachelor of Science in Archaeology and Materials as Recommended by the Department of Materials Science and Engineering

This program's special focus is on understanding prehistoric culture through study of the structure and properties of materials associated with human activities. Investigating people's interactions with materials, the objects that such interactions produced, and the related environmental settings, leads to a fuller analysis of the physical, social, cultural and ideological world in which people function. These are the goals of anthropological archaeology, goals that are reached, in part, through science and engineering perspectives.
