We are a student-run organization for students interested in archaeology. CUAC works with the Columbia Center for Archaeology to organize lab workshops, field trips, guest speeches and social events. Whether you're pursuing a career in archaeology or simply enjoy a good Indiana Jones film, attending CUAC meetings and events is a great way to get to know other students interested in the discipline, network with professors, and stay informed about internship and dig opportunities. CUAC welcomes new members year-round, and we encourage you to email us for more information!
