In general the issue with radar (assuming the correct frequency has been
chosen for the job) is in the skill of the interpreter. This is a very
particular skill - and usually a bit beyond most undergraduates (and even
some practicising professionals). The "kit" should be fairly standard
these days.
The problem with radar is going to be spotting the vertical edge on
profiles - unless you know precisely where to look area coverage with
radar starts to get very expensive. Other area techniques may be more cost
effective - such as traditional archaeological ground resistivity surveys
or magnetometry.
Other possible area techniques include microgravity surveying and EM
techniques.
