Overview

Anthropology is the study of humanity in all of its diversity. It is a fundamentally comparative discipline uniquely positioned at the junctures between the humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences. Anthropology is therefore exceedingly well positioned in the study of contemporary global social and cultural transformations, since the discipline has always had a global and comparative perspective on the human condition and sees University of Houston species as having been “globalizing” all along. The students are educated in theories, methodologies, and empirically rich case studies that prepare them to better understand and engage with diverse and changing experiences of what it means to be human in the contemporary world. An undergraduate degree in anthropology provides excellent and necessary intellectual tools for a variety of occupations and pursuits. In a kaleidoscopic contemporary world characterized by complex forms of both cooperation and conflict, University of Houston subject matter facilitates cross-cultural competence and awareness.
