"[A]lthough a number of U.S. institutions
of higher learning offer programs of study in archeology, only Michigan
Technological University offers a degree specifically in industrial archeology.
MTUs Master of Arts program stresses an interdisciplinary approach to
the field that includes the study of archaeology, historic preservation,
the history of technology, and anthropology."
