Anthropology

About

Anthropology is a classic example of an undergraduate liberal arts major, combining fascinating coursework and practical career training in one academic package. The University of West Georgia offers a Bachelor of Science in Anthropology. Anthropology students are encouraged to see the world holistically, as the sum of its biological, social, and cultural parts. Holism an eye toward the all-encompassing â€œBig Pictureâ€‌ is what distinguishes anthropology from more technical and specialized fields that view the world through much narrower lens.

The Anthropology Department is committed to high quality instruction, research, and service activities that are exemplary contributions to the Vision and Mission of the University of West Georgia. The Anthropology Department embraces academic freedom in the conduct of its faculty, as well as the philosophy and objectives of liberal arts education through its contributions to general education and the core curriculum. The Department aims to provide its undergraduate anthropology majors with a comprehensive introduction to anthropological knowledge through classroom instruction, experiential learning, and directed research opportunities. We also strive to enhance student life by providing extra curriculum learning experiences. We are committed to providing learning skills necessary for continued success in academic and workplace environments, as well as for personal and civic enrichment. The Anthropology faculty is committed to instructional excellence, continuing professional development, scholarly contributions to their areas of professional expertise, and service to the institution and civic community.
