Anthropology is the study of human cultural and biological diversity across time and space. As the economy and workforce in the 21st century is becoming increasingly international, anthropology provides especially important training. It is the only discipline that approaches human questions holistically, using a combination of historical, biological, linguistic, and cultural perspectives. It provides the skills to understand complex social issues, their causes, and potential solutions. Students trained in anthropology have the analytical and methodological tools to apply their knowledge of human diversity to real world problems.
Anthropology majors at UIC enjoy a small-school experience in a large, urban, research university. With few exceptions, our undergraduate courses are taught by UIC faculty. Large introductory courses generally include a smaller weekly discussion component led by teaching assistants. Advanced courses for majors can be as small as 10-12 students. The faculty is composed of leading researchers and award-winning teachers. UIC Anthropology undergraduates are known for presenting papers and research results at local and national meetings. Our students have also won Fulbrights and other prestigious awards.
