AA/AS in Anthropology

Anthropology examines human variation across place and time, from living cultures to ancient societies and human biological development. The Associate of Arts is built for students who plan to continue at a four-year institution in Texas, and its core courses are designed to carry over to public colleges across the state. The transfer plan introduces cultural anthropology and archaeology and prepares students for a related bachelor major. Prospective students can read the degree plan on the program page, contact the listed program staff with questions, and begin the process through the college application. Advisors can help map the courses to a chosen transfer destination so that credits are used efficiently. The program is well suited to anyone who wants a defined first stage of a bachelor degree with a defined set of courses and a predictable path.
