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. Programs of Study The department offers programs in the following areas: • Bachelor of Arts with a major in anthropology; • Master of Arts, and • Master of Science, both with a major in applied anthropology.
