The Universities of Iceland and Hólar are accepting applications to The Archaeological Field School at Hofstaðir, run in collaboration with The Cultural Heritage Agency of Iceland. The school, which will run from July 15th to August 9th 2024, will provide students with hands-on instruction and experience in Icelandic archaeology, various field techniques and post-excavation processes. It also aims to encourage students to develop interests in North Atlantic archaeology, heritage management and how archaeological heritage may be utilised as tourist attractions. Furthermore, it aspires to promote and facilitate research in Iceland by helping students make contacts with relevant researchers and providing advice about potential research projects.
Further details about this and how to apply.

Hello,
Will there be a 2025 archaeology field school here?
Yes, we hope so and we will post details of it here and on the NABO mailing list once it is confirmed.
Dear Madam/Sir,
my name is Hana Kantoci and I am currently a graduate student in Archeology and Comparative Linguistics at the University of Zagreb. I have a question regarding field school in Iceland. Will it be held this year and when can we expect the first information? I am very interested as I want to specialize in Arctic archaeology.
I look forward to Your answer
Best regards
Hana Kantoci
Yes, Hana. Details should be available soon, hopefully this month.
