Imagine unearthing the oldest known Native American home site in Southeast Ohio. Or spending the summer researching street artists rethinking urban identity in post-conflict Northern Ireland. Imagine mapping cemeteries in Southeast Ohio to reconstruct the history and culture of mining towns. Imagine empowering local communities through social justice campaigns at the intersections of global economies and local markets.

三个分支学科
Because of its wide range of subject matter, anthropology at newbb电子平台 is organized into three subfields that share a common focus on humankind and form a unified academic discipline. Students develop a general knowledge of anthropology and have the option to gain more specific in-depth knowledge in the subfield of their choice. Linguistics courses are offered through the Linguistics Department.
The subfield options are:
- Archaeological anthropology, involving the excavation, description, 分析, and interpretation of extinct cultures.
- Sociocultural anthropology, which focuses on the description, 分析, and interpretation of existing cultures, and is interested in both particular and universal features of these cultures.
- Biological anthropology, which is concerned with human beings as 生物 organisms from the past to the present.
By virtue of their common focus on humankind, these subfields form a unified academic discipline. 本科 students are expected to acquaint themselves with a general knowledge of anthropology while they gain a more in-depth knowledge in the subfield of their choice.
