AMEC Programs of Study
The Department
of Anthropology & Middle Eastern Cultures offers studies in the histories
and cultures of the Middle East and of the Americas. A degree in AMEC
concentrates on the study of humans as both biological and cultural beings,
who may be investigated by means of several sub-disciplines. Students majoring
in AMEC may undertake course work in archaeology, biological anthropology,
cultural anthropology, and linguistics. Specific information on both
undergraduate (BA) and graduate (MA) degrees earned in AMEC may be found
via links above.
The current faculty of AMEC do primary research in native American archaeology, forensic anthropology, public health issues, conservation and ecological projects, Middle Eastern archaeology and survey, pre-historic landscape change, and development of digital archives.
Students in AMEC may participate in these research efforts through field schools and in the laboratory treatment of artifacts.
