Welcome to the Department of Anthropology at Michigan
State University. Over
the last 10 years, the Department of Anthropology has changed in several important
ways that will enable us to reach new and higher levels of excellence. We have
added a number of new faculty, we more actively engage both undergraduates and
graduate students in research, and we have focused our programs on our considerable
strengths.
 |
|
Anthropology faculty represent all four traditional subfields of the discipline
(sociocultural anthropology, linguistic anthropology, biological/physical
anthropology, and archaeology). We have particular geographic expertise
in Africa, Asia, Latin America, and North America. Across these geographic
areas, the department has programmatic emphases in the study of culture,
resources, and power; medical anthropology; forensic anthropology
and skeletal biology; and archaeology. More... |
