Anthropology examines humans and their primate relatives, offering students insights into humanity's diverse forms across time and environments.
This field explores biological characteristics of humans and primates throughout history (biological anthropology), examines material remains of past societies (archaeology), studies modern cultures (cultural anthropology), and analyzes language systems (linguistic anthropology).
Our Anthropology Department features a robust, expanding program with specialists in all four subdisciplines. Faculty conduct research across four continents (North and South America, Europe, and Africa), with particular strengths in Latin American studies. Both undergraduate and graduate students gain from faculty expertise through field method courses and research supervision in areas like socio-cultural anthropology, medical anthropology, and archaeology.
