We offer occasional employment, primarily for University of Florida students. We hire Federal College Work Study students through the University of Florida system primarily for collections based assistance. We also hire University of Florida students with appropriate experience (in archaeological, biological, or geological fields) to assist with EAP research projects. Please feel free to contact the collection manager. Include your CV and specific statement of interest.

Environmental Archaeology Endowment for Education and Research
We are deeply grateful to the FAO Schwarz Family Foundation for their generous support in establishing the Environmental Archaeology Endowment for Education and Research. This endowment continues to grow with contributions from other generous individuals, helping us expand access to our collections and support the next generation of researchers.
Endowment funds directly support:
- Student opportunities in collections management education and training.
- Improvemed documentation and curation of modern and archaeological collections.
- Environmental archaeology research at archaeological sites throughout the Americas.
- Physical growth of our collections from a single field focus (zooarchaeology) to the more holistic three-field
focus incorporating zooarchaeology, archaeobotany, and archaeopedology.
Your tax- deductible donation helps ensure the continuity and impact of our program for years to come. To contribute, please visit the University of Florida Foundation’s secure giving site. Thank you for considering a gift that makes a lasting difference.
