The Anthropology degree also offers unique training and perspectives to students interested in health sciences careers. Students must select one of the two tracks for the anthropology major: Four-field anthropology: The four-field anthropology track combines courses in archeology, regional and topical sociocultural anthropology, medical sociocultural anthropology and biological anthropology. Anthropology of health: The anthropology of health track draws on medical, cultural, linguistic and biological anthropology to examine the biocultural basis of health and the sociopolitical and cultural dimensions of illness experience and treatment. Students who complete this track will be well-prepared to pursue careers in diverse health-related settings (including non-profit and government service) and/or to advance to graduate school in anthropology, public health and related disciplines. It also serves as a great foundation for students interested in pursuing careers in medicine.
