The anthropology curriculum includes courses in biological anthropology,
which deals with the biological evolution of the human beings and with the
nature and significance of physical variation among human populations; archeology,
which deals with the recovery and analysis of cultural remains of human populations
that lived in the past; and sociocultural anthropology, which focuses on socially
learned and transmitted systems of knowledge of contemporary human populations
with special emphasis on non-Western societies and cultures. The anthropology
curriculum provides a comprehensive, well-rounded knowledge of the field to
students in our major and minor programs, and many of our courses are requirements
or electives in other degree programs.
