Departmental & Inter-Departmental Programs

Peace Corps Master's International Program
in Environmental Anthropology

The Department offers a master's degree in environmental anthropology that requires service in the Peace Corps. It is an active member of the Peace Corps Master's International program. The requirements for this program are somewhat different from the requirements for other MA concentrations in cultural anthropology and include courses not only in anthropology and sociology but environmental science and regional planning as well.

Departmental Emphases in Cultural Anthropology
at the Master's Level

At the M.A. level there is a core program that includes several areas of emphasis. One such area is globalization. Another is psychological anthropology, which focuses on cross-cultural infant, child, and adolescent development. It is coordinated with the Psychology, Sociology, and Human Development departments. An additional area is medical anthropology, including traditional medicine and healers, cross-cultural psychiatry, primary health care in developing countries, and cultural aspects of infectious and parasitic disease transmission and control. Students are encouraged to take courses in related disciplines, such as nutrition, health science, and psychology.
