Irish Heritage School

Our internships are aimed primarily at IHS alumni who want to expand on their archaeological skills, learnt from previous IHS programs, but we will make exceptions for non-alumni for the right individual. Our internships are based at our archaeological projects in County Offaly, Ireland. Our winter programs of 8 weeks take place between January 4th and February 28th, 2026.

Internship tasks Offaly focus on site excavation and survey, archaeological and historical research and post-excavation. Students stay with local families in homestay accommodation, guaranteeing an enriching cultural immersion and truly memorable experience.

The fee includes all meals, accommodation, tuition, instruction, equipment, and field trips.

Scholarship support is available to IHS alumni only through our ‘Alumni Scholarship Scheme’, please select on your application.
