Master of Arts in Anthropology
Program Overview
Gain advanced training in the social sciences to prepare for a PhD program or a career outside of academia with the Master of Arts in Anthropology in Temple University’s College of Liberal Arts. This 30-credit master’s program integrates the field’s four traditional subfields—archaeology, biological anthropology, linguistic anthropology and sociocultural anthropology—and is structured around two thematic areas: Evolution and Human Environments, and Mobility and Global Inequality.
Evolution and Human Environments examines the origins and development of all forms of human adaptations in the biosocial realm. This area emphasizes ecological, geographic and spatial-historical data, and quantitative analyses grounded in evolutionary theory.
Mobility and Global Inequality explores the social processes and institutions that impact peoples’ movement and inform their experiences based on social inequalities, resource distribution and power inequities. Students study ethnographic, linguistic, and visual data and analytical methods rooted in contemporary theory in the social sciences.
The Anthropology MA is led by faculty who have expertise in the following subfields.
- Anthropological linguistics
- Biological anthropology
- Medical anthropology
- Prehistoric and historic archaeology
- Sociocultural anthropology
- Visual anthropology
Conduct fieldwork and acquire the skills you need to perform work in both academic and professional settings. The culminating event for the program is a comprehensive exam designed to assess your knowledge gained in the five core courses.
