在这里学什么？

Anthropology is the study of human beings in all their cultural and biological diversity. It includes the study of human evolution, the archaeological record, language and culture, the relationship between humans and their environment, and cultural modes of being as these differ in time and space. In studying anthropology, students can better understand how to find ways to live together in today's world, respecting cultural diversity while building upon common human values.

Options in the Major

In addition to the standard anthropology course of study, students completing the Bachelor of Arts in Anthropology may choose one of the four options listed below. Completion of these options will be noted on the transcript upon graduation. The options are:

Medical Anthropology and Global Health: The study of topics relating to health, illness, and healing from sociocultural, biological, clinically applied, public health, and other related perspectives.

Anthropology of Globalization: The study of today's increasingly interconnected and multicultural world, focusing on both contemporary and historical patterns of global exchange.

Archaeological Sciences: The rigorous study of archaeological methods and theory that concentrates on the relationships between the material traces of human activity and the actions and natural processes that result in these traces.

Human Evolutionary Biology: The study of how human evolutionary history has shaped modern human biology, and evolutionary perspectives on the cause of disease in contemporary humans.

Indigenous Archaeology: The in-depth study of indigenous archaeological perspectives on the evaluation and protection of cultural heritage sites.

Study of anthropology at the University of Washington comprises three sub-disciplines:

Archaeology is the study of the human past through investigation of material remains (artifacts, food remains, features, structures, etc.) and their relationships in space and time.

Biological anthropology focuses on understanding human variation through the study of the ecological, demographic, genetic, developmental, paleontological, and epidemiological dimensions of modern human adaptation and its evolutionary basis.

Sociocultural anthropology is the study of human societies, their cultures and histories, and the circuits of power and exchange that link them to the world at large.

Study at the undergraduate level can further entail any of four optional tracks: Medical Anthropology and Global Health, Anthropology of Globalization, Archaeological Sciences, and Human Evolutionary Biology.

Learning Objectives and Expected Outcomes: The study of anthropology develops skills in critical thinking, research, and writing, as well as technical skills specific to the different subfields (ethnographic field techniques, interpretation of data, statistical analysis, archaeological methods of data collection and interpretation). An undergraduate degree prepares students for many positions that involve working with people, as well as for academic studies in a variety of fields. Careers in anthropology can be developed through employment with government agencies, museums, teaching and research, private consulting firms, and nongovernmental organizations.
