Combined Ph.D. in Anthropology and Environment

Yale grounds

The Combined Ph.D. Program in Anthropology and Environment blends the disciplinary and theoretical strengths of the Anthropology Department with the interdisciplinary and theory-and-practice strengths of the School of the Environment. Students in this program frequently work on dissertation projects in environmental/ecological anthropology, social ecology, political ecology, and/or related fields. The Combined Ph.D. Program is open to applicants in any subfield of anthropology (archaeological, biological, or sociocultural/linguistic), and prospective students should refer to those programs as well. Detailed information about program history, requirements, and common trajectories may be found here (PDF).
