Our department offers a Bachelor of Arts degree with an array of courses designed to provide students an overview of the discipline, and a thorough grounding in archaeology, biological anthropology, and cultural anthropology.
Because there is a strong cross-cultural and comparative focus in Anthropology, students are encouraged to develop competence in a foreign language and to broaden their cultural horizons by participating in study abroad programs.
Through participation in field studies and laboratory projects, out students have opportunities to engage in hands-on research, sharpen their analytical skills, and develop competence in the use of instruments and technology that are essential aspects of the undergraduate experience in anthropology.
Our faculty includes accomplished scholar/educators with different specialties that reach across the field. Their research expertise comes from fieldwork projects carried out in a variety of geographic and cultural settings.
