The Bachelor of Arts in Anthropology at KPU equips students with skills for navigating diverse local and international communities through life, careers, and research. KPU provides two specialized tracks: Archaeology-Biological and Social-Cultural studies. Our Archaeology-Biological program stands out by incorporating meaningful engagement with Indigenous communities and anthropology experts, earning recognition from the British Columbia Association of Professional Archaeologists - a Canadian first. The Social-Cultural track develops competencies for today's knowledge-driven, globally connected society, emphasizing community-based learning that bridges differing perspectives. KPU's anthropology faculty focus on practical applications, delivering education through interactive labs, fieldwork, and community initiatives aimed at deepening understanding of human behavior and societies.
