Course Information

An Anthropology major helps students understand cultures throughout the world. The study of cross-cultural issues is important for many fields. Anthropology has long been recognized as a leading discipline in the development of concepts and knowledge regarding culture, prehistory, evolution and linguistics. Anthropologists draw upon the social sciences, humanities, biological sciences, and physical sciences to examine humanity’s diversity over time and space.

Anthropology is an excellent background for students who want to pursue careers or plan on attending graduate school in policy, development, teaching or other service professions.
