Program News

Menorca Field School in Archaeology and Heritage Management

In the summer of 2010, the Menorca Field School in Archaeology and Heritage Management will offer enrolled students the opportunity to design and create an exhibit on the archaeological research being done at Torre d'en Galmes. The design process will include planning the overall exhibit layout, working with texts related to the site's findings, preparing audiovisual components, restoring archeological materials to present, working on brochures and materials to explain the exhibit, and creating an itinerary for the exhibit. The opportunity will greatly enhance students' experience while completing their research and is a wonderful chance to learn how to prepare formal archaeological exhibits.
