What's the best school for a future archaeologist? The
University of Chicago is often considered the top-ranking college for archaeology in the United States. Among smaller schools,
Bryn Mawr College's archaeology department is one of the oldest and most renowned. (Bryn Mawr is a women's
. college, but guys can major there too, through its partner Haverford College.) The University of Pennsylvania, University of Michigan, University of Arizona, UCLA, Boston, Brown, and Cornell all have well-known programs too. Archaeology programs often focus on the research interests of their professors, so be sure their speciality is one you'd enjoy before committing to it.
