Anthropology represents a broad field of study focused on the study of human beings and their cultures in all times and places. The field encompasses such subdisciplines as cultural anthropology, medical anthropology, linguistic anthropology, archaeology, and biological anthropology.
Courses listed below offer comprehensive approaches to anthropology’s diverse subject matter and provide an important component of a liberal arts education for both majors and non-majors. The anthropology major requires introductory courses in each of the main subfields (with the minor requiring at least two). Upper-level electives and seminars delve into various aspects of the study of cultures from a number of different perspectives.
