Anthropology explores both the commonalities and variations among humans (and related primates), examining cultures and societies from a worldwide comparative viewpoint. The University of Toronto has offered anthropology courses for almost 150 years, with its Department of Anthropology formally created in 1936, home to many leading figures in Canadian anthropology. Faculty members investigate contemporary and historical human communities, cultural traditions, evolutionary origins, and closely related species. Graduate studies are available in sociocultural, medical, biological, linguistic, and archaeological anthropology.
The Master of Science program spans two years, typically concluding in the second summer. Collaborative Specializations may require additional time. Part-time enrollment is possible, though these students don't qualify for Base Funding. This degree suits those pursuing careers in archaeological consulting, certain medical or forensic anthropology fields, NGO positions, or preparing for Anthropology PhD programs elsewhere.

Qualification Requirements

Applicants to the MA and MSc programs are expected to hold an appropriate Bachelor's degree, with a final year average of at least B+ or its equivalent from a recognized university. Normally, students must have at least five full-year Anthropology courses (or equivalent) with a minimum average of B+ to allow them to specialize in their proposed areas of study. However, the department also welcomes applications from students with competence in related fields, in line with our interest in innovative cross-field and cross-disciplinary work. Students who have done coursework in related fields which they would like the admissions committee to consider should attach a separate sheet as a last page to the research statement, listing these courses and explaining the relevance to the proposed program of study in anthropology.
