Anthropology, BA
Live with and study cultures throughout the world. Discover universal truths and distinctions amongst all humans. Our program will challenge you to look at human beings and their communities from every vantage point imaginable—biological, theological, environmental, and sociological, to name but a few. You’ll engage with the past and present through primary sources, hands-on research, and contemporary digital research methods.
With our outstanding, approachable faculty as your guide, you’ll learn how to situate contemporary events within the context of the human narrative while sharpening you critical thinking and communication abilities. As the culmination of your study, you will create an original work of anthropological research, using the tools and knowledge you’ve gained throughout your time at Saint Mary’s.

Saint Mary's Testimonials
“It was because of these professors that I secured a position in my field directly after graduation. This was the result of more than just the skills I was taught, but thanks to my advisor searching and finding field school opportunities specific to me. Without her guidance and support, I wouldn’t be on my current career path.”
