The program of study in anthropology provides opportunities to study culture, in all of its complexity and forms of expression, in societies ranging from small-scale and technologically simple to those which are complex, urban, and technologically advanced.  Such study allows students to develop a perception and appreciation of the common ground shared by all peoples and cultures. Students interested in the Peace Corps or public/religious service groups will find the study of anthropology especially useful. 

Career possibilities for students with an anthropology background:

• lawyer
• architect
• educator
• city planner
• community developer
• international affairs and business management 
• health care and medicine 
• preservation of cultural resources

Courses in anthropology are general elective courses, which fulfill general degree requirements of the College and requirements of specific programs.

For course listings and descriptions, please see the on-line undergraduate catalog.
