Requirements
Applicants to the certificate program must have earned a Bachelor’s degree. To qualify for a certificate, students must have an overall GPA of 3.0 or better in all courses included in the certificate curriculum. The Certificate program consists of five courses (with a minimum of 15 credit hours), which could be chosen from the list. Of those, at least two courses must be in Anthropology (ANG), and at least two have to be in History (EUH). All students must take either EUH 6126 (Introduction to Medieval Archaeology) or ANG 5172 (Historical Archaeology). In addition, all students must take the Medieval Archaeology Field Practicum (as EUH 5934/4186 for 6 credit hours) or Field Sessions in Archaeology (ANG 5824L), or otherwise petition to substitute field experience on an archaeological site pertaining to the Middle Ages. All students must maintain a minimum grade of B in each course in order for that course to count towards completion of requirements. For any one of the non-required courses in the attached list, students may petition to substitute one-time “topical” courses (such as ANG 6930, EUH 5934, or EUH 6126). Students must file a plan of study for the concentration at least two semesters prior to graduation, in which they should indicate the list of courses to be taken for completing the requirements and the time at which they are to be taken, in addition to relevant background information about the student. The plan of study must be approved by the program advising committee, which includes five affiliated faculty members, one of whom is from Anthropology, and another from History (in addition to the program coordinator).
