Anthropology is a scientific and humanistic discipline devoted to improving our understanding of human culture and diversity. Anthropologists are holistic in that they endeavor to describe in the broadest sense what it means to be human. This includes exploring relationships between the human past and the present as well as between the biological and social components of our species. Anthropology is the study of people, their origins, adaptations and ecology, distribution, customs, languages, and social and religious beliefs. This program provides a variety of study abroad experiences, summer field schools, and internship opportunities all of which can contribute significantly to a student’s understanding of the discipline. The majors are encouraged to focus in one of three sub discipline areas in anthropology which include archaeology, biological anthropology, or cultural anthropology.
