BA Anthropology
Anthropology is a holistic and broad approach to the study of humankind. It deals with our origins; biological characteristics; languages; and the beliefs, customs, and lifeways of past and contemporary cultures. Today, anthropologists work in research centers, hospitals, corporations, government offices, community organizations, as well as academic settings.
The Anthropology Major prepares students for advanced work that can lead to college teaching, museum curating work, and/or research, as well as careers in non-academic settings. The program can be adapted to meet certification requirements for teaching social studies in New Jersey schools.
