Bachelor of Science in Anthropology

Program Overview

Anthropology, the study of human diversity across geographic space and evolutionary time, takes on these far-reaching questions. Courses in the Department of Anthropology deal with three areas:

  • Physical anthropology is concerned with the evolution of human beings as biological organisms and with the physical variation within contemporary human populations.
  • Archaeology and prehistory explore the extinct cultures of the past and attempt to elucidate the processes involved in their development.
  • Sociocultural anthropology is involved with the comparative analysis of socially learned behavior patterns and institutions of contemporary populations from all areas of the world.
