Students pursuing the master of arts degree must satisfy all graduate school requirements. A thesis is required. Optional tracks for the thesis include prehistoric/historical archaeology, cultural anthropology, linguistic anthropology or physical/biological anthropology.

Biological Anthropology

Biological anthropology is the sub-discipline of anthropology that studies human evolution and variation. Specific emphasis is on mechanisms of biological evolution, genetic inheritance, human adaptability, worldwide genetic and physical variation, primate anatomy and behavior, and paleoanthropology.

Cultural Anthropology

Cultural anthropologists study the diversity of human cultures and societies around the world and the processes by which people construct local, regional and global forms of social relationships. Several anthropologists in the department study the processes by which people construct particular social identities, worldviews and forms of community in a changing, globalizing world. In the contemporary world, much ethnography addresses the manner in which people in local communities orient themselves to global networks and institutions.

Linguistic Anthropology

Linguistic anthropology is the study of language use in social life. Linguistic anthropologists study the diversity of the world's languages and the diversity of language use and other forms of communication in societies around the world. Also included in this, is the study of cultural understandings of language and language varieties. This department has particular strengths in bilingualism and multilingualism, ethnography of communication, discourse analysis, indigenous language maintenance and revitalization, language and power, and language and place.
