This program grounds students in the four fields of anthropology, providing training in theory and methods, with emphasis on archaeology and cultural anthropology. The program provides a combination of multicultural analysis and critique, opportunities to apply these to prehistoric peoples and cultures through field school offerings. Students gain intellectual, analytical, research, and technical skills, preparing them for careers in archaeology, museums, government, and business. The Dr. James W. Jordan Archaeology Field School exposes students to methods of site excavation and artifact recovery.
