The University of Michigan has a long and varied tradition
of archaeological fieldwork in the Mediterranean and
Near East, ranging back to the days of Francis Kelsey
and his pioneering work at Karanis in the Fayum, Egypt.
IPCAA students at present work and study in a wide range
of settings — from the Classical heartlands of
Greece and Italy, to Spain, Croatia, Turkey, Cyprus,
Israel, Egypt, Jordan, Russia and the Ukraine.
IPCAA students also routinely learn about museum practices
and engage with issues of public presentation and outreach,
through internships at other institutions, through work
on exhibits in the Kelsey Museum itself, and (since
2003) by studying for the newly-established Certificate
in Museum Studies. Student publication of material
in the Kelsey holdings is also encouraged.
