Introduction
The Department of Anthropology coordinates
and directs a program for those who wish to pursue
a career in the discipline of anthropology, for those
simply interested in the human condition and for
those who may wish to combine the study of anthropology with another discipline.
Courses in anthropology are grouped to provide
students with an understanding of human physical,
social and cultural complexity, and the relationships
of humans to one another and the environment.
Physical anthropology provides an understanding
of human origins and human biological variability.
Anthropological linguistics adds to the understanding
of language and other forms of human communication within the context of culture. Archaeology
provides a sense of the past by exploring the changes
and development of ancient cultures and environments. Sociocultural anthropology provides
appreciation and understanding of human social and
cultural patterns and human behavior.
