专业概况

Our department offers a 30-hour, two-year long graduate program culminating in the Master of Arts degree.

Since we began offering the master’s degree in 2007, anthropology graduate students at NC State have distinguished themselves by conducting original research projects, presenting their findings at regional and national conferences and publishing their scholarly work as co-authors with program faculty.

Our faculty conduct research across the globe in archaeology, biological anthropology, and cultural anthropology, and have created opportunities for students to become involved in ongoing studies. We prepare our students to enter top-ranked doctoral programs and to find satisfying careers in non-academic and applied settings.

Program Specializations

We offer three anthropology program specializations to graduate students: Archaeology, Biological Anthropology and Cultural Anthropology. Students may pursue a stand-alone degree in Anthropology or a dual degree (for example, with the Masters of Arts in Teaching). Students may also combine their Anthropology degree with a concentration related to one of the “associated NC State resources” listed below.

Archaeology

Archaeologists study past cultures through their material remains—from everyday objects to human remains to landscapes. Our archaeology graduate students develop a program of study based on holistic training in anthropology and interdisciplinary scholarship. We provide dedicated laboratory space for archaeological research and materials analysis. Graduate students may choose to construct a research project on a subject of their own choice in consultation with their advisor, or to gain training and expertise in the following areas:

INEQUALITY, COMMUNITIES, AND POLITICAL ECONOMY

ARCHAEOLOGY

COLLECTIONS AND CULTURAL RESOURCE MANAGEMENT

Biological Anthropology

Biological anthropologists study human populations and past cultures through analysis of the form and function of the human body, with an emphasis on evolutionary change over time. Our biological anthropology graduate students take courses in human osteology, bioarchaeology, and skeletal biology, in addition to training in archaeology and anthropological theory relevant to their research interests. We provide dedicated laboratory space for bioanthropological research and training, as well as a large teaching collection of skeletal remains. Graduate students may choose to construct a research project on a subject of their own choice in consultation with their advisor, or gain training and expertise in the following areas:

BIOARCHAEOLOGY

SKELETAL ANTHROPOLOGY

Cultural Anthropology

Cultural anthropologists at NC State pursue a wide range of research interests, including specializations in the following two areas: Globalization and Social Justice and Science, Environment and Health. Graduate students at NC State may construct a research project on a subject of their own choice in consultation with their advisor, or receive training and expertise in the following skills:

GLOBALIZATION AND SOCIAL JUSTICE

SCIENCE, ENVIRONMENT AND HEALTH

Curriculum

The Anthropology Graduate Program is a 30-hour, two-year long Master of Arts degree. All students in the program will take a 1-hour proseminar course their first semester. This course teaches students about the professional aspects of being a student and an academic. Students with a specialization in archaeology or biological anthropology (bioarchaeology, skeletal biology) will normally take three hours of archaeological method and theory (ANT 583), and students with a specialization in cultural anthropology will take three hours of anthropological theory (ANT 511).
