PhD Researchers and ARCHON

GIA is associated with ARCHON, the national research institute and graduate school, which comprises the archaeology departments of five universities and the National Service for archaeological heritage (RACM). ARCHON is responsible for the training program of the PhD researchers; however from 2004 onwards GIA PhD researchers will also attend the practical and interdisciplinary courses of the Graduate School  for the Humanities (GSH). The training programs of ARCHON and GSH consist of basic courses and seminars whereas most GIA activities take the form of special courses requested by the researchers, or workshops, seminars and conferences.
