Medical anthropology is a subdiscipline of anthropology that includes the study of all aspects of health, healing illness and disease in human communities and populations. It draws on all the perspectives that distinguish anthropology as a unique discipline: the analysis of human evolution and adaptation cultural development, expressions, and variability and historical change and continuity. A particular strength of our program is its integration of theoretical knowledge with community- and field-based training opportunities and challenges. We prepare students for careers in nonprofit and community groups, non-governmental organizations, advocacy, public health, health care institutions, and health sciences research.
