Anthropology Major Requirements
Ten courses, including:
1. One Gateway (introductory level) sociocultural anthropology course
(Anthropology 10-39)
2. One Gateway biological anthropology or archaeology course (Anthropology 4059)
3. Anthropology 130
4. Seven additional anthropology courses, at least one of which must be a Gateway
or mid-level area-focused course numbered below 160, 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.
The department encourages majors to explore the possibility of undertaking a senior
thesis.
