Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D) in Anthropology

Anthropology is the study of humans, past and present. We combine commitments to the exploration of archaeological, physical, and cultural aspects of human and social being through a range of approaches with the aim of enabling fuller understanding all aspects of humans. Normally a student will have completed the requirements for an MA degree in anthropology before their admission into the doctoral program. Since application for the program is usually made before completion of the MA degree, a student may be accepted conditionally on completion of the MA degree. Applicants must have clearly developed intellectual and research interests. MA applicants should have at least tentatively defined ideas for a thesis research project.
