  • Diploma in Archaeology
  • The Archaeology Diploma program at Northern Lights College provides academic knowledge and field skills specific to archaeology sampling techniques. The field of archaeology is growing along with the oil and gas industry and other developments that disturb the land. Trained graduates can find employment opportunities with numerous archaeology and environmental consulting firms as well as government agencies.

    The diploma program is ideally suited for students interested in entry-level positions that largely involve field work in remote areas under physically demanding conditions. This career can involve survey and excavation, artifact processing and analysis, and report preparation.

    Using this Diploma program as a stepping stone to completion of a bachelor's degree, students can obtain employment in upper-level positions. A degree in Anthropology or Archaeology in combination with field experience offers graduates the opportunity to become Field Directors or Senior Archaeologists.

    Career Prospects

  • Archaeology consulting companies
  • Environmental consulting companies
  • Federal government agencies
  • Provincial government agencies
  • First Nation band offices
  • Museums

    Location: Academic courses are generally available in both Dawson Creek and Fort St. John, either face-to-face or by video conference. However, travel to Fort St. John will be required for certain courses.

    Length: Four academic semesters (60 weeks) with a minimum of 945 hours in total. Students are required to complete this program within a 10 year period from the start date.

    Start: May or September start on even years. Full-time students may finish two academic years later, in April. Note that this program has several courses that are only available every two years. Thus, full-time students who do not maintain good academic standing in required courses risk extending their program by one or more years. Part-time study is also available.
