Our anthropology programs promote the exploration of cultural practices and social conditions in diverse contexts throughout the world. The doctoral program is structured around the field of “engaged anthropology”, which emphasizes practical involvement with the social world, through both ethnographic and theoretical analyses of cultural frameworks and social fields that shape interactions amongst humans, and between humans and the environment.
