The Bachelor of Arts in Anthropology with an Environmental Anthropology Concentration provides an opportunity for students to complete the degree requirements through courses focused primarily on the interaction of humans with their environment. These courses demonstrate the critical relationship that exists between human behavioral ecology, environmental setting and impact. Applications are drawn from the prehistoric past through the contemporary world with particular attention to adaptations to climate change, resource consumption, management, and political economy. Students should contact their adviser to explore the opportunities for including these selections into their course of study.
