Palomar college offers two Associates degrees for students interested in pursuing a career in Archaeology.\u00a0\u00a0 The first is a Transfer Associates Degree\u00a0 (A.A.T) with an emphasis in Archaeology.\u00a0 This degree is a good choice for students who are interested in transferring to a four-year program in archaeology as soon as possible and who want the maximum number of transferable credits. \u00a0 The second is a stand-alone Associates Degree in Archaeology.<\/p>\n

The A.A. archaeology degree encompasses almost all of the field and technical training opportunities available here at Palomar College.\u00a0 Together these courses provide students with training which will enhance employment opportunities as a professional archaeologist as well as provide sufficient background to begin upper division work in anthropology.<\/p>\n
