Anthropology B.S. The Anthropology program emphasizes the study of the whole human being. It is focused on understanding diversity in Houston, the United States, and the world. Through coursework, students explore world cultures and global challenges as well as methods for studying peoples and cultures. The major prepares students to be global citizens by promoting skills for engaging responsibly and ethically in diverse communities in the United States and globally. In particular, the major fosters a number of skills, including cross-cultural communication, critical thinking and writing, and qualitative research and data analysis, which prepare students to respond creatively to the challenges of Houston's diverse and dynamic employment sector. Anthropology students have opportunities for many exciting site visits to Houston's diverse neighborhoods.
