Anthropology Minor

Develop an expertise in the study of human cultures and their physical and social environments with a minor in Anthropology. The program is founded upon four major fields: sociocultural anthropology, linguistic anthropology, physical anthropology, and archaeology. You will gain a breadth of knowledge about human cultures and their physical and social environments and an understanding of the diversity of human historical and contemporary experience.
