Anthropology - Bates College

Anthropology from Bates College is a Campus Bachelor Anthropology degree that prepares you for a Science career. Students majoring in anthropology study the discipline's history and methodology by taking two types of courses: those that focus on a particular cultural area (such as Africa, the Caribbean, Europe, native North America, or South Asia) and courses that focus on a specific theoretical concern. They also conduct individual ethnographic or archeological fieldwork and are encouraged to complement their work in anthropology with participation in a study-abroad program. The chair serves as the study-abroad advisor for anthropology students. Major requirements may include course work in other related departments (such as art and visual culture, biology, geology, languages and literatures, politics, religious studies, or sociology) and programs (such as African American studies, American cultural studies, Asian studies, environmental studies, or women and gender studies). Some departmental funding is available for student research projects, most notably the annually awarded Hamill Fund Grant for fieldwork in anthropology. View more details on Bates College .
