The experience was very worthwhile. I learned so much about archaeological research methods and the Maya in general. I learned a lot about Belize culture, and how to travel while enriching my experiences in new places by doing so. devonshire.lokke - University of Texas - San Antonio View Entire Review

I gained valuable knowledge of field methods, specifically those used by that archaeological project. The data I collected will be used for my master's thesis. A student - University of Texas - San Antonio View Entire Review

They will also learn about Maya archaeology, architecture, and art through evening lectures and weekend field trips to important archaeological sites in the region. The program is open to graduate students, who will enroll in graduate-level field course at UTSA.
