Anthropology Major
Students in anthropology delve into human experiences through ethnographic interpretations, and participate in debates about our global future in which they seek new possibilities. They will explore pressing questions about our relationship with the environment; the impact of global inequality on health and development; the legacies of colonialism and racism; and emerging struggles for justice.

Graduates in anthropology are creative thinkers who can effectively express ideas, ask challenging questions, and find new solutions to complex problems. They are prepared for a variety of careers in media, research, technology, social justice, and social policy, and for professional and postgraduate programs.
