About the Program
The Anthropology Minor program at UCCS is designed to provide students with an interdisciplinary understanding of human cultural developments, history, and societies.
The program is divided into four main areas: archaeology, biological anthropology, cultural anthropology, and linguistic anthropology. Students in the Minor program will gain an introduction to three of the four and generally focus on one of the four through upper-division elective courses.
Focus of Study
Anthropology is the study of humankind throughout space and time, integrating the humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences to explore the human culture, language, biology, and our past. The Department of Anthropology serves our students and community by promoting and advancing a nuanced understanding of human origins, history, and diversity. Integrating creative and robust research with outreach to students and the community though teaching and service, we provide our students with rich opportunities to learn and collaborate both in and out of the classroom.
