The Anthropology Department is dedicated to the study of humanity, particularly to the study of the physical and cultural characteristics of man. Anthropology is an ever-evolving field, as new discoveries of ancient human remains constantly add to our understanding of man’s beginnings. Recent discoveries such as “Java Man” are having a profound impact on the study of anthropology, and we have no doubt that many more groundbreaking discoveries will be made in the coming years. In addition to offering courses on the most recent trends and findings in anthropology, the department is proud to offer annual field research trips to places such as Africa, Asia, and the Far East for students enrolled in advanced coursework.
