Anthropology - University Of Pennsylvania

Anthropology from University Of Pennsylvania is a Campus Bachelor Anthropology degree that prepares you for a Science career. Anthropology is broadly defined as the study of human diversity. As a discipline, it is comprised of four distinct subfields: * cultural anthropology , concerned with living societies; * linguistic anthropology , dealing with variability in language and the role of language in culture; * archaeology, studying past societies through material and written remains; and * bio-physical anthropology , focusing on human evolution and the interaction between culture and human biological variability. U. Penn's Department of Anthropology emphasizes the integration of the discipline's four subfields, called a four-field approach, although here cultural and linguistic anthropology are considered a single unit. Following this philosophy, the Anthropology major is designed to encourage students to experience the full breadth of the discipline while giving flexibility to design a course of study best suited to their own needs. The program includes small seminars and individual research in the laboratory and in the field. View more details on University Of Pennsylvania .
