Anthropology Cultural Anthropology Linguistics Lingusitics Physical Anthropology Archaeology Medical Anthropology Literally translated, anthropology means the study of humans. Anthropologists seek to discover why, when and where humans first appeared, how they have changed and why and how people differ cross-culturally today.
Anthropologists study every facet of human social life, past and present.
Some are archaeologists or medical anthropologists. Wherever humans have lived is where the anthropologist can be found. Currently, the department offers a minor in anthropology. Students who are majoring in sociology can choose from a number of anthropology courses to fulfill their major requirements. By the year 2001, we hope to have an undergraduate major in anthropology.
