Anthropology includes different subfields: Archaeology, Biological Anthropology, Cultural Anthropology, and Anthropological Linguistics. The Bachelor's degree provides excellent preparation for advanced academic degrees, such as those obtained in medical school, law school and graduate school in anthropology and other social sciences. The primary goals of the major are to promote a sense of wonder about human potential and to teach students to think anthropologically. Thinking anthropologically fosters critical understanding of cultural assumptions, social conventions, information, and even the concept of culture itself. This level of critical thinking builds the skills and attitudes necessary for working and living in diverse social environments. The USF Department of Anthropology also offers an Honors Program.
