Anthropology explores human origins, development, current societal conditions, and future possibilities. The Anthropology Department provides undergraduate and graduate degrees, along with a minor program. The bachelor's program delivers a comprehensive understanding of human existence while equipping students with diverse skills and research techniques used in anthropological fieldwork and lab studies. These examine ecological influences on humanity, cultural foundations of behavior, and contemporary challenges in sustaining healthy, productive societies.
Our Master's program stands out by offering personalized faculty attention. Distinctive features include community-building activities through our Anthropology Club and exceptional professional development opportunities tailored for MA candidates. Career-seeking students benefit from our alumni mentorship initiative, while those pursuing doctoral studies have a strong track record of admission to prestigious programs. Eligible residents from 14 states qualify for in-state tuition, with competitive funding options including Teaching Assistantships and fellowships.
The archaeology program focuses on reconstructing ancient societies through field and museum research. Combining quantitative scientific methods with theoretical frameworks of political economy and cultural ecology, it offers courses in theory, methodology, and regional studies. Students can enhance their learning through internships at Denver-area museums and preservation offices, supplemented by relevant courses in geology, geography, and history.
