***Please note: we are not currently accepting applications for summer 2024, which will be a study season dedicated to analysis of our finds from 2018–2023. We intend to resume excavation in summer 2025 and will consider new applications starting in the fall of 2025. 

Applying to join us:

Applicants should send the following materials to reginacarolinapompeii@gmail.com: (1) a current CV, (2) a 2-page statement of interest, and (3) for current students or recent postgraduates, a recent academic transcript.

Applications will be considered and accepted on a rolling basis. 

Our Assistant Project Director, Dr. Kaja Tally-Schumacher, has posted some suggestions and tips for applicants here!

Expenses:

This project does not charge tuition or fees. However, participants should be prepared to pay for their own travel, room, and board expenses. Team members are required to stay in collective housing arranged by the project. In previous seasons, many team members have stayed at the Vesuvian Institute in Castellamare di Stabia. The Vesuvian Institute provides half board (breakfast and dinner). In 2019, room and board expenses were approximately €45/day per person.
