The Department of Anthropology offers a B.A. in Anthropology with concentrations in visual anthropology and urban applied anthropology; a B.A. in Interdisciplinary Archaeology; minor programs in cultural anthropology and medical anthropology; an M.A. in anthropology; a Certificate in Visual Anthropology and a Ph.D. in Anthropology.
The Department of Anthropology encourages students to become involved in ethnographic research and fieldwork while gaining a firm theoretical foundation in anthropology. Special areas of emphasis in the department are provided by programs in visual anthropology and primate ethology at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. Undergraduates may take a number of courses in visual anthropology that focus on the analysis and understanding of human behavior and are encouraged to include visual media in their senior field methods practicum. Undergraduates may also elect to complete a major with an emphasis in Visual Anthropology or a major in Urban Applied Anthropology.
