Their Bachelor of Arts in anthropology offers a comprehensive perspective on examining human physical and cultural variations throughout history and geography. As an interdisciplinary subject, anthropology incorporates knowledge from DU's arts, humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences departments. By taking classes focused on societal transformation, civil liberties, ecological concerns, artifacts, technological advancements, scientific inquiry and beyond, you'll acquire insights into the spectrum of human cognition and conduct while building valuable research competencies. You can achieve recognition within the major by concentrating on one of its fundamental disciplines: archaeology, sociocultural anthropology, or museum and heritage studies.
Department professors emphasize practical, immersive education that extends past traditional classrooms into laboratories, museums, galleries, and fieldwork environments. DU's Museum of Anthropology provides a publicly accessible, community-oriented venue for gaining hands-on professional experience.
Within our specialized facilities and museum spaces, you can refine career-ready abilities - ranging from conducting interviews, administering surveys, and photographic documentation to artifact preservation, display curation, and overseeing projects.
