Across time and space - wherever people are found - anthropologists are interested in exploring the patterning in the texture of their lives.
Meet our faculty or browse some student work to see how we apply a four-field approach to better understand history, culture, and human social dynamics.
Check our upcoming events, speaker series, and Student Anthropology Society activities on News & Events.
You can stay updated with the Department on Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn. These are great ways to get the latest on events, scholarships, internship and field school opportunities, student and faculty research, and interesting articles, while also networking with fellow CC Anthropology students and alumni!
