Graduate Program

Students who enroll in one of the Anthropology Department’s Ph.D. programs join a vibrant and diverse community of scholars working to extend the disciplinary and interdisciplinary horizons of twenty-first century Anthropology. Students in all Ph.D. programs work closely with their advisers and other faculty to craft an appropriate sequence of graduate-level courses, professional experiences, and independent research culminating in a dissertation. The Department of Anthropology offers only the PhD degree. Prospective students interested in the MA in Archaeological Studies should consult the Council on Archaeological Studies
