BA in Anthropology- Environmental Anthropology in Stanford United States | Stanford University

The Environmental Anthropology concentration explores the intricate connections between humans and their surrounding ecological and societal contexts. Students in this program gain essential theoretical knowledge and research methodologies to examine how populations, landscapes, and resource use patterns evolve across time and space. This interdisciplinary specialization offers perspectives on human-environment interactions through various frameworks such as behavioral ecology, political ecology, evolutionary studies, zooarchaeology, ethnoarchaeology, global change impacts, demographic studies, biological anthropology, and population ecology. Faculty researchers investigate how biological and cultural evolutionary processes generate diversity in human physiology, behavior, and social organization, and how these variations interact with living systems and social structures across different geographical scales.
