Undergraduate Programs
Anthropology Major
Anthropology is the comparative, evolutionary and historical study of human, and nonhuman primates.
Anthropology Minor
Because we study all aspects of humans, anthropology is holistic and inter-disciplinary and anthropologists work hand-in-hand with other sciences such as biology, physiology, sociology and psychology—just to name a few.
Integrative Human Biology Minor (IHB)
Engage in research in human form and function, human evolution and biological variation, human behavior, and the roles humans play in local and global ecosystems. Students will acquire the broad but rigorous background they will need as professionals in the 21st-century health sciences and many other fields that engage directly with aspects of human adaptation and welfare.
