Caitlin Curtis, Ph.D.

Caitlin's research interests include participatory mapping, GIS applications to social questions, cultural heritage studies, community engagement in heritage management, and sustainability. At the University at Buffalo, she received her PhD in Anthropology with specialization in Archaeology in 2017, and her MA in Geography with specialization in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) in 2012. In addition to her longstanding archaeological and heritage research in Turkey, she is also currently developing an educational outreach project at an Armenian archaeological site. She is excited to bring these projects and research interests into the classroom to engage students at the forefront of heritage and GIS.
