Taiwan Programs

Temple University Summer Research Programs

Rolling Admissions. Apply Early.

Because the nature of the program emphasizes a small team atmosphere, program space is limited. Preference will be given to students of anthropology, archaeology, architecture, art history, classics, or history. It is important to be very motivated and be prepared to work from early in the morning and in the summer heat. Team spirit and social skills are paramount to successful completion of the program and a good excavation campaign.
