What qualifications do you need to be a archiologist?

Job Success Step Three. You will likely need a graduate degree in Archaeology and perhaps also a license, depending on where you work. Likely, there will only be a certain number of schools that offer programs where you can study to become an archaeologist. Try to find all the schools that you think you might have an interest in and thoroughly read through their curriculum, admission policies, and the success rates of their graduates obtaining good positions. Prepare as early as possible for admission. You do not want to miss deadlines, or not do something that could easily have been done.

Job Success Step Four. Obtain some job experience or do some job shadowing with archaeologists. This will allow you to find out what being an archaeologist is like. Maybe you really hate it. Maybe you love it. It's a great opportunity to broaden your horizons even if you decide not to become an archaeologist in the future. Getting job or volunteer experience will also look very favorable to future employers, as they will know that you were capable enough that someone trusted you with their work. It will also allow you to get reference letters if you need any. Last, but not least, you will gain practical experience and contacts as an archaeologist that may help you in your future job.

That's about it:) hope that helps!
