Belize Valley Archaeological Reconaissance Project (BVAR)

Belize Valley Archaeological
Reconnaissance Project

Application

You are applying to join a research project that is operating in a culturally diverse country, under conditions which will likely be quite different from those to which you are accustomed to in your home country. The project involves hard physical labor and the ability to live and cooperate in close quarters with others in a tropical environment. This questionnaire helps to ensure that the project operates smoothly and that we have some idea of your skills, interests, strengths, and weaknesses prior to the beginning of the field season. Please try to answer as accurately and completely as possible. You may complete the online questionnaire below, or you may download the pdf form and return your answers via email. Please do not send us duplicate questionnaires.

If you are experiencing difficulties using the text features of Adobe Acrobat Professional or if you simply do not have this software, you can copy and paste this application into your word processor or email and send the completed form via email to:

bvararchaeology@gmail.com

Note that in Adobe Acrobat Reader you can copy the content of PDF files to the clipboard by using the corresponding function under the “Edit” menu. Having done this you can paste (Ctrl+V) the form into a word processor or an email. Then fill in the form accordingly, but instead of checking items off as in the online application form, just mark selections off with an “X.”

Thank you.
