专业概况

在这里学什么？

The unique intellectual challenge of anthropology is to integrate knowledge from many disciplines for a global understanding of cultural and biological diversity in the past and the present. Individual courses in cultural anthropology, biological anthropology and archaeology cut across lines of the humanities, social sciences and natural sciences. Because of this integrative perspective on the human condition, and the training provided in objectively assessing cultural patterning and social interaction, an advanced degree in anthropology provides a versatile base for career development.

Students in our terminal master’s program have the benefit of receiving the faculty’s full attention. Our program is unique in several respects.

The University of Colorado Denver Department of Anthropology provides outstanding graduate education in anthropology, giving students a broad yet thorough grounding in the four subfields of anthropology as well as specialized instruction in one or more of a number of research orientations and/or geographic area concentrations. These orientations encompass the areas of research and application in which department faculty have substantial expertise.

Graduate Learning Outcomes

Student Learning Goals

Students will demonstrate theoretical sophistication and the ability to situate anthropological research within a paradigmatic theoretical stance.

Students will demonstrate understanding of the basic tenets and underlying assumptions of both a) the structure of science/science as a way of knowing and b) post-structuralist approaches.

Within the students’ sub disciplinary track they will demonstrate knowledge of the major schools of thought. Specifically, students in the archaeological track will demonstrate knowledge of processualism, political economy, contextualism/interpretivist perspectives, and agency/structure interaction. Students in the biological track will demonstrate knowledge of general evolutionary theory, human evolution and human evolutionary ecology, human variation and adaptability, theories of morphological evolution, and the theory of behavioral evolution. Students in the medical and political economy/sustainability tracks will demonstrate knowledge of the major schools of thought in cultural anthropology including political economy, critical theory, and the interpretive School.

Archaeology

• Prehistoric and Modern migration
