Anthropology

Cultural Anthropology - The Cultural Anthropology Certificate curriculum is designed to provide students a better understanding of the development of world social and political institutions and gives students an appreciation for diverse cultures.

Physical Anthropology - The Physical Anthropology Certificate curriculum is designed to provide students with a basic foundation in the interaction between biology and culture. Completion of the Certificate prepares a student to pursue further studies in fields that require an appreciation for our evolutionary and cultural past.
