Anthropology (B.A.)
About
Anthropology is the study of human cultures, societies, and behavior in all parts of the world throughout all periods of history. There are four sub-disciplines: archaeology, the study of past cultures and civilizations; socio-cultural anthropology, which is concerned with current cultures of all degrees of complexity; physical anthropology, the biological aspects of the human species; and anthropological linguistics, which is concerned with the scientific study of language and its relationship to thought and society.
Program Highlights
Requirements
A minimum of 36 credits of anthropology or geography is required. In some cases, double majors may be able to apply six credits of related coursework from the other major (with approval). Advanced study in anthropology normally requires use of quantitative methods, some theoretical sophistication, and foreign language competency at the intermediate level. A basic knowledge of statistics and one or more foreign languages is required in most Ph.D. programs in Anthropology. In consultation with his or her advisor, the student should select courses appropriate to interests and projected career paths.
