Anthropology

The Anthropology department prepares students to navigate diverse professional landscapes, extending beyond traditional fieldwork to encompass roles in government, private industry, law enforcement, and non-profit organizations. With an emphasis on critical thinking, communication, and problem-solving, an Anthropology degree equips graduates with essential skills highly valued by employers. Anthropology courses at McMaster emphasize these important skills, improve knowledge about cultural differences, and provide a broad understanding of human experience.
