This field school program, with a length of 20 days, will start in Athens (Greece). Students will meet in Athens on the first day.

On the 11th day, after 3 days-off, participants will fly to Rome, where they will  stay for  6 day. There, students will focus on an archaeological tour around Rome in order to discover the Coliseum and its surroundings, Capitoline and Vatican Museums –including the Sistine chapel-, Pompeii city and the Christian basilicas in Trastevere.
