Program Description

Anthropology is the exploration of what it means to be human. Although anthropology is often associated with faraway places and remote excavations, anthropologists are increasingly involved in research on education, health, food, migration, sports, tourism, and cultural identity. The study of anthropology provides a broad-based approach to understanding human culture (past and present) and human biology. The anthropological perspective is global, holistic, and involves considerable time-depth. The major exposes students to the primary subdivisions in archaeology, social-cultural anthropology, and biological anthropology. The B.A. in anthropology prepares students for further academic training at the graduate level but can also lead directly to careers in nonacademic (applied) areas, such as forensics, contract archaeology, cultural resource management, museum work social services, education, government, and market research. Internships, archaeological field schools, and a departmental honours program are available to students in this major.
