Bachelor of Arts in Anthropology (Honours)

University of New Brunswick

Anthropologists study humans: who we are, what we do, what we say, what we look like, and what we believe in. At UNB, Anthropology is a holistic discipline, meaning you’ll examine humans, both past and present, as biological, cultural, and social beings. You’ll explore three central subfields – sociocultural anthropology, archeology, and biological anthropology – and you’ll have access to our expanded lab facility that includes a vast collection of human, hominid, and primate teaching specimens. Anthropology is available as a major, minor, and honours in the Bachelor of Arts (BA) program.They use a range of learning styles and innovative teaching methods, and we incorporate findings from our research. Their small class sizes mean greater interaction between you, your instructors, and your peers.
