The museum has maintained an active program of field research in archaeology since 1937. Today, our field schools offer graduate and undergraduate students practical training in excavation techniques and other field methods at two of North America's earliest cultural sites. 

The 2020 archaeology field schools at Connley Caves and Rimrock Draw Rockshelter were canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Please stay tuned for announcements about the 2021 field schools.
