Anthropology offers a comprehensive, interdisciplinary exploration of humanity across time and cultures. As an Anthropology student, you'll examine diverse subjects ranging from ancient stone tools and skeletal remains to modern economic systems and linguistic variations. Our Department features four specialized branches: Archaeology, Bioanthropology, Linguistics, and Socio-Cultural Anthropology, each offering numerous research avenues.
The curriculum combines classroom instruction with seminars, laboratory work, and field studies to deliver balanced theoretical knowledge and practical skills. You'll work in state-of-the-art facilities with exceptional anthropological collections that have supported major discoveries and been used by leading experts.
Our globally engaged faculty bring cutting-edge research into the classroom, creating outstanding undergraduate research possibilities. Many students collaborate with professors on specialized projects, with numerous undergraduates presenting at national conferences and making early career impacts. The department also operates a summer field school offering practical experience in excavation techniques, lab analysis, artifact identification, and site mapping. While primarily based in Northwestern Ontario, international opportunities exist through our partnerships in Croatia, Israel, and Italy for those seeking global learning experiences.
