Bachelor of Science in Anthropology

Anthropology is the study of humanity in all of its wondrous chronological and geographic diversity. From the dawn of humanity over two million years ago to the current day, from the Arctic to the Antarctic, anthropology introduces students to the variety and complexity of contemporary and past human societies and cultures. The goal of anthropology is to make sense out of that complexity and to understand the processes that have shaped and continue to shape the lives of people around the world.

To accomplish this goal different anthropologists examine biological, archaeological, linguistic and cultural aspects of humanity striving collectively for integrated understanding.

A central focus of anthropology is the use of field research to develop and investigate ideas about people, societies and cultures in the past and present. So in addition to the course work, we offer methods training in archeological analysis, human osteology, ethnographic methods, anthropological statistics, and forensic anthropology.

We also offer field experiences in:

Archeology: Where students participate in excavations in the United States and Europe.
Culture Anthropology: Ethnographic field experiences in the United States.
Primatology: Where students participate in the collection of data on primate behavior and ecology as well as community management.
Forensic Anthropology: Investigation with local law enforcement.
