Anthropology Major Requirements

Ten courses, including:

  1. One Gateway (introductory level) sociocultural anthropology course (Anthropology 5-39 excluding Anth 5
    Science and the Human Experience
    )
  2. One Gateway biological anthropology or archaeology course (Anthropology 40-59)
  3. Anthropology 130
  4. Seven additional anthropology courses, at least one of which must be an area-focused course numbered below 160 (a Gateway or mid-level), and two of which must be upper-level seminars (Anthropology 160-189)

Note:
We strongly recommend taking the theory course (Anthropology 130) in the junior year.
A maximum of two courses cross-listed in other Tufts departments may be counted toward the Anthropology major. Students must achieve a grade of C- or better for a course to count for credit toward the major.
The department encourages majors to explore the possibility of undertaking a senior thesis.
