Anthropology

Anthropology is an exciting discipline that offers insight into who we are as a species and how we came to be.

The study of humanity

Because the scope of interest is so wide, anthropology is broken into four sub-fields: cultural, biological, linguistic, and archaeological. ��Ƶ offers��courses��in each of these fields.

In the classroom

Anthropology provides valuable insight into many contemporary issues such as First Nations land claims, the transmission of HIV-AIDS and other infectious diseases, global migration, the human genome and language extinction. A discipline that views humans as both biological and cultural beings, we offer a holistic understanding of human concerns and problems.

"The great revelation of anthropology is that there are other ways of being, other ways of thinking, other ways of organizing yourself on the planet. And that's an idea that not only fills you with hope, it shows you the absolute importance of cultural diversity."
