Work with top faculty to grow your career in academia, research or industry. We offer an M.A. in Anthropology and a Ph.D. in Sociology.
What We Offer
Our department offers two graduate programs: the 31-hour M.A. in Anthropology and the 72-hour Ph.D. in Sociology. Anthropology courses range from osteology, to culture resource management, to archaeological methods. Sociology courses include gender and crime, environmental sociology, social control and social stratification, as well as theory and methods courses.
We are strongly committed to supporting student research. We encourage our students to work with faculty and to present their original research at national and international conferences.
Our faculty are among the best in their fields, with research agendas that span the globe and investigate a multitude of complex phenomena in the human experience, both past and present.
