2009 Course Handbook
ECJS884: Archaeological Fieldwork
Students complete the four-week summer course in archaeological field work of Tel Aviv University in July or August. It consists of full-time residential participation in an excavation in Israel, together with the concurrent course on the historical geography and archaeology of the coastal plain of Israel. Prospective students should consult the Ancient History Department before enrolling.
The balance of the half year will be spent in a program of related study either abroad or at Macquarie, for which students must secure approval from the Dean of Division before leaving Australia. Information on other courses abroad which would fulfil this requirement may be available.
A pass in the unit requires the credit awarded by Tel Aviv University in respect of the course there and the production of a satisfactory written report on the program of related study by the end of the Macquarie half-year.
Students are individually responsible for meeting the tuition and residential charges and otherwise for planning and paying for travel and accommodation. Advice on obtaining concessions and grants in aid may be obtained through the Department.
