The presentation was held during an international workshop held online, hosted by HTW Dresden. HTW Dresden has a lot of experience in the application of technologies in archaeology and cooperated a

with many archaeological projects and institutions to provide them with technological expertise . However,

as these technologies permeate archaeology more and more and become standards for recording,

documenting and teaching archaeological cultural heritage, a need for staff specialized both in

archaeology and digital technologies arises. To meet this demand, HTW Dresden and its partners are

working toward developing a new master’s degree in applied computer and geosciences in archaeology.

The presentation will explore the demand in the field and its job market and draw an outline, how a degree

can be designed to meet this demand.
