人类学理学学士-人类生态学

人类学是对人类，其文化，生物学，行为及其随时间变化（进化）的研究。因为我们研究人类的各个方面，所以人类学被认为是整体性的和跨学科的，也就是说，人类学家与其他科学（例如生物学，生理学，社会学和心理学）紧密合作。在犹他大学，人类学系分为四个主要部门：文化，生物学，进化生态学和考古学。文化人类学关注人类文化，以及人类文化如何随时间和空间变化-遍及全球以及史前时代。生物人类学专注于古代和现代人类的解剖，生理和生物学变异性。生物人类学也关注非人类的灵长类动物，例如黑猩猩和大猩猩。通过研究它们，我们希望对自己有所了解
The Department of Anthropology's major with emphasis in Evolutionary Anthropology combines our core biological anthropology courses into a cohesive program designed to prepare majors for careers in the biological and evolutionary sciences, such as human evolutionary genetics, paleoanthropology, and anthropological demography. The emphasis is ideal for students desiring rigorous theoretical training combined with hands-on practical experience through our various labs and field programs. Anthropology is the study of humans and non-primates using comparative, evolutionary, and historical perspectives. Because we study all aspects of humans, anthropology is said to be holistic and inter-disciplinary, that is anthropologists work hand-in-hand with other sciences (such as biology, physiology, sociology and psychology), as well as the humanities (such as history, world languages & cultures, and religious studies).
