Biosocial Anthropology Specialization The biosocial program offers specialized training in biological anthropology and in biosocial approaches to the study of human behavior. Students in the program specialize in the areas of research in which the faculty have interest and expertise including using bioarchaeological data to look at the relationship between the natural and social environment and human health and behavior and studying psychological adaptations, including those related to human sexuality and mating. Interdisciplinary
Graduate Program Anthropology Graduate students can participate in the Interdisciplinary Program in Human Development which is concerned with biological influences, changing cognitive capacities, and sociocultural influences across the human lifespan. Initial coursework includes general theoretical and conceptual issues in studying human development. Advanced coursework focuses on variability in development as influenced by biological, sociocultural, and ethnic/racial variables. Interdisciplinary Ph.D. Emphasis in Global Studies Global Studies is broadly defined to to relate knowledge of a particular part of the world to the larger trends and issues that affect all societies: the transnational interactions of peoples, cultures, economies, and polities; the globalizing processes of the communications media; technological and environmental changes; the search for world order, law and human rights; and the sometimes violent political, ethnic and religious responses to what is perceived as cultural and economic homogenization on a global scale. Students within this emphasis must write a dissertation that is in some way concerned with transnational social processes or forces. Interdepartmental Graduate Program in Marine Science The Marine Science program emphasizes the necessity for cross-disciplinary graduate-level training through its graduate program which brings together 36 marine faculty located in 7 departments on the UCSB campus. Marine-oriented faculty in the Department of Anthropology focus on human dimensions of marine science including property rights, resource management, and coastal zone development especially in Melanesia, Latin America and Asia. Institute on Global Conflict and Cooperation IGCC's original emphasis on security and nuclear nonproliferation has broadened with time. IGCC researchers study a wide range of topics involving international economic and technology policies that shape our ability to produce prosperity, innovation, and mutual understanding across the globe. Projects cover international environmental policy, globalization, and the deeper effects of the communications revolution and e-commerce on cultures and societies. Connections between and among the world's regions are explored, with a mission of creating solutions that transfer across borders. IGCC has produced leading work on the causes of ethnic and religious conflict, and it has provided ongoing leadership for conflict resolution initiatives in the world's most troubled regions. Since its establishment, UC MEXUS has maintained the primary mission of developing and sustaining a coordinated, University-wide approach to Mexico-related studies. UC MEXUS promotes education, research, public service, and other scholarly activities in five principle areas: Mexican Studies, United States-Mexico Relations, Latino Studies, Critical Issues, and UC-Mexico Collaboration (including ties with El Consejo Nacional de Ciencia y Tecnología and Universidad Autónoma del Estado de Morelos).
