Students pursuing a Bachelor of Arts in Anthropology gain essential skills for success in the modern global workforce. Our curriculum equips learners with abilities to investigate, organize, assess, and understand information about human diversity and behavior - competencies that employers actively seek and that apply to numerous professional paths. Understanding cultural and biological differences becomes increasingly vital in our diverse society. The program offers thorough instruction using interdisciplinary methods covering archaeological, cultural, linguistic, and biological anthropology. Additionally, students enjoy multiple chances to engage in hands-on research and field studies both domestically and internationally.
International freshman applicants must be high school graduates (students that have the equivalent of a diploma in the United States).
English proficiency is measured through the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL). A score of at least 550 on the paper based exam or 77 on the internet based TOEFL is required.
