Bachelor of Arts in Anthropology

University of Idaho

Anthropologists study cultures around the world. Their work uncovers the mysteries of how people lived long before us and provides important knowledge about the societies of today. As an anthropology major, you will examine the world's diversity. You will explore human evolution, learn about societies of the past and present, and study the differences in languages, lifestyles and physical attributes. Students in this program have opportunities for hands-on learning at the university’s Alfred W. Bowers Laboratory of Anthropology or the Asian American Comparative Collection (AACC), where you could participate in artifact analysis and conservation, archival research, field work and other anthropology research.
