The study of anthropology is an exciting and dynamic field that explores the diversity of human culture and biology throughout time and space. As a discipline, anthropology brings together the humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences to provide a holistic understanding of human history, behavior, and society.

Our Anthropology undergraduate degree program is rooted in the traditional four-field approach to anthropology, which includes archaeology, biological anthropology, cultural anthropology, and linguistic anthropology. This approach allows students to gain a comprehensive understanding of the human experience, from our evolutionary past to the complexity of contemporary societies. 

Throughout the program, students will have multiple opportunities for fieldwork and research experience, allowing them to apply what they have learned in the classroom to real-world settings.

The program also prepares students to attend top graduate schools or to aspire to careers in fields like:

• Anthropology
• Museums
• Cultural resource management
• The arts
• Business
• And a variety of other professions and service agencies.
