Student Participant

June - July 2018 • Rome, Rome

What I liked

I really enjoyed the collaborative nature of the archaeological dig- the staff was very helpful and educational

What I wish was different

I wish that the commute from Rome to Gabii wasn't so long and that we could have gotten out a little earlier.

Advice

archaeological work is very labor intensive- 8 hours a day, at least, of physical labor

Undergraduate Research Assistant

May - August 2018 • Ann Arbor, MI

What I liked

I liked getting to tinker with the robots I was working with, as well as being able to create the outreach events that were run by us.

What I wish was different

I wish there was more of a solid foundation in the research we took part in.

Advice

Try to look at what you can improve, however little, because it all adds up to a better end product or success.
