Biomedical Anthropology Minor
|
|
 Return to: Programs of Study
No more than two courses may count toward both the Biomedical Anthropology minor and the Anthropology or Archaeology major.
Biomedical anthropology incorporates theory and practice from all areas of anthropology, particularly biological and cultural approaches to health and disease. This minor offers students - both anthropology majors and non-majors - the opportunity to gain experience in the field by studying the cross-cultural and evolutionary aspects of health and disease, healing systems, human variation, growth and development. Students interested in other areas may arrange an independent research project.
