Anthropology is the study of past and present human societies.
Anthropologists are concerned with the origin, history, and future of our own species, so the field is as diverse as people are. It is one of the most wide-ranging of the academic disciplines.
If you have questions about any of our Anthropology courses (enrollment, waitlist, instructor, course syllabus from courses you've taken or other questions), please contact Mrs. Le-Thu Erazmus Campbell at lerazmus@ku.edu, ANTH Office Manager | Scheduling & Undergraduate Officer.
If you have questions about deadlines or application materials for our graduate program, please contact Corinne Butler at cebutler@ku.edu (CLAS Graduate Program Coordinator) or call 785-864-9419.
