A museum has recently been installed in the sites old medieval church, with decorative construction pieces and epigraphs. Students will learn skills that can be applied to a career in curation, museums, collections, archives, and of course, field archaeology, all while doing detective work to solve the many unpredictable issues that arise when rehabilitating old collections. Students will generally spend part of their training in the field, on land or underwater, and part on heritage documentation or museum development.
