2016 – 2 0 1 7 C ATA L O G ANTHROPOLOGY (ANTH)
About the program
According to the American Anthropological Association, anthropology is “the
study of humans, past and present. To
understand the full sweep and complexity of cultures across all of human history,
anthropology draws and builds upon
knowledge from the social and biological sciences as well as the humanities
and physical sciences. A central concern
of anthropologists is the application of
knowledge to the solution of human
problems. Historically, anthropologists
in the United States have been trained in
one of four areas: sociocultural anthropology, biological/physical anthropology, archaeology, and linguistics.” To
that end, the following degree program
provides coursework in the four subdisciplines, as well as courses within a variety
of social, biological, and physical sciences,
as well as the humanities. This degree
prepares students to pursue seamlessly
a baccalaureate degree in Anthropology
at a CSU.
