Introduction

Anthropology and Archaeology is a Bachelor program taught at Hampshire College, USA. The program is offered in campus-based modes with full-time options.

Students learn anthropological models and methodology as a foundation for informed, integrative independent research. By combining coursework in the natural sciences and social sciences, students gain exposure to field work and laboratory analysis.
