In addition to 5 core classes, students must take at least one course beyond the introductory level in each of the three areas of cultural anthropology, physical anthropology, and archaeology to complete the concentration in Environmental Anthropology. Students must take 4 additional courses indicated below. In consultation with the adviser 3 credits will be accepted toward the anthropology major from outside our departmental offerings. The field of anthropology is complementary to a number of other offerings at Adelphi, thus providing many opportunities for double majors.
