Sample Four-Year Plan for Anthropology

In this sample study plan, we either recommend specific general education (GE) courses or suggest specific courses. In the major we require an upper-division (UD) course in each of the distinct subfields of anthropology, which are archaeology (AR), biological anthropology (BA), linguistic anthropology (LA) and cultural anthropology (CA). Specific offerings vary each semester; some occur on alternate years. This sequence and selection of specific courses are suggested; please see your advisor each semester.
