Best university degree for an aspiring archeologist?

I gave one archaeologist Art history as it seemed appropriate, and he took the Selvadorada and Archaeology related electives when they came up.

I can see why you you thought that was fitting but in the jungle he would benefit from high logic skill..it helps with the jungle dangers.

Hmm, never thought of that.

Yep
, it helps avoid the bats:)

History of course! It is both fitting and focuses on charisma and logic, as well as the research and debate skill which can be useful for any student. Biology seems like a good choice too if you want something less obvious as logic, handiness and gardening can all be helpful in the jungle. If like my sim your sim wants to do archaeology more as a hobby though, then any degree that suits their character could be useful. They could also study electives in archaeology, Selvadoradian culture, handiness etc. and work on fitness or join the sports team.

Nice to know.

From a gameplay viewpoint I have no idea, but for roleplaying do not underestimate the importance of painting, writing and photography, perhaps also handyness in addition to logic. There's a good amount of measuring, describing, drawing, comparing and laboratory work in that career.

I've literally just done this with my sim :) I went for History because it builds logic and charisma, and spread it out over 4 terms so I could take more electives - and tried to do electives in Salvadoradan culture and dance, and handiness, and I had him join the sports team too to build his athletic skill. By the time he graduated his skills were really high, and his ability to deal with all of the jungle issues, chance cards and traps, was really good and he didnt really need anything other than a machete to explore. From a storytelling perspective, I thought History would be a good one because I though he could be exploring which part of history he found most interesting, and he would discover a love of ancient history and focus his life choices from there.

shouldn't this be under "EPs" and not game pack?

Jungle is Game pack, so valid here
