Program details
Overview
This short program in Archaeology for First Nations at Universite du Quebec a Chicoutimi was created to address the lack of archaeology training designed specifically for First Nations communities. Delivered on campus at the Saguenay location, the 15-credit program gives students practical training and theoretical knowledge to interpret and communicate archaeological findings within Indigenous communities. Regular entry requires a Quebec DEC or equivalent. Applicants may also enter with at least fifteen completed university credits and a cumulative average of at least 2.3 on 4.3. A further route admits candidates holding a secondary school diploma with university-level knowledge, notably in French, and professional experience, whether for an organization or as a self-employed worker, in a field directly related to archaeology, on presentation of a candidacy file. The program suits members of First Nations communities seeking training in archaeological methods relevant to their own heritage and territory.
