What does it mean to be human? That’s a complicated question because the human species is… well, complicated. That’s why we offer a holistic approach to anthropology that includes all four fields--biological, archeological, cultural, and linguistic—so you can develop a multi-dimensional perspective on people and the world. Become a global citizen on a personalized level as you dig into your interests using our research and teaching labs that are equipped with a 5,000-year-old real human skeletal collection, ancient fossil and tool casts, ethnographic materials, and scientific equipment. Then conduct your own research, join a professor on their field research in places around the world, or complete an internship. No matter what experiences you embark on, you will graduate with a view and appreciation of the world and its diversity in a different way from anyone else.
