Our departmental faculty include cultural, physical and applied anthropologists working on a number of stimulating research projects. These include:
The Anthropology program provides students the opportunity to learn about various research techniques and requires they conduct independent or group research projects, either through field school opportunities or through various lab-oriented projects. Recent field schools include trips to Appalachia (2004), Belize (2006) and Guatemala (2007).
Students interested in Anthropology can pursue either the Bachelors of Arts degree or the new Bachelor of Science degree. Both degrees provide an introduction to the subfields in anthropology and offer courses that represent these fields as well as the application of important anthropological information to contemporary issues.
