Academic Course Map for Anthropology (B.A.)


ÌýÌýProgram OverviewÌý

Students in the Bachelor of Arts degree inÌýAnthropology (ANTH) at CU ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ study humans and our biological relatives across time and space. Anthropology is the only field to address the diversity of the human experience in its biological, culturalÌýand historical contexts.ÌýThe diversity of anthropology is the source of both its uniqueness and its greatest strength as a discipline.ÌýIt provides both a broad vision of what it is to be human as well as creative synergies unavailable to other disciplines within the human sciences and humanities.

Anthropologists get to ask and answer the big questions about humanity:ÌýWho are we? Where do we come from? Where are we going? If these questions—and many other questions about humanity interest you, study anthropology!ÌýThe Department of Anthropology at CU ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ provides many opportunities for student involvement like the Anthropology Club, a summer archaeological field school, internships, research with faculty, teaching opportunities, studying abroad, and a thriving departmental honors program.
