What will I learn?

Anthropology is the study of humankind, from the earliest peoples to our contemporary digital society. Learn about different peoples, languages, and cultures from around the world and across time as you study the four principal fields of the discipline – archaeological, biological, cultural, and linguistic anthropology. Here in close-knit classes, you’ll explore the extraordinary variability in human adaptation, organization and belief systems, and discover the common circumstances that unite us.
