Bachelor of Arts in Anthropology

USA

What will I learn?

Anthropology is the study of humans as biological and cultural beings. Its subfields include archaeology, biological anthropology, cultural anthropology, and linguistics. Students majoring in anthropology may undertake course work in all four subfields, with concentrations offered in archaeology and cultural and biological anthropology.

Anthropology is a particularly broad major, designed for students who are preparing for employment with research organizations or museums, for administrative and research positions with state or federal governments (such as state highway departments and the National Park Service), and with human service agencies or organizations that involve work in foreign countries. The undergraduate major in anthropology also prepares students for graduate training in professional fields such as planning, law, and public administration, as well as for graduate training in anthropology leading to college and university teaching and research positions.
