Anthropology is a unique discipline. Anthropologists ask the "big", important questions that are becoming increasingly important in a globalized, rapidly changing world: Where did humans come from and how did we evolve over time? Why is there so much inequality in the world? How do people organize for justice and create lasting change? What is the relationship between biology and culture? How can we learn to live well together?

Anthropology answers these questions through dynamic research. We study biological variation in the lab and cultural variation in the field. We bring together community insights and experiences with cutting-edge scholarship. Through this work, anthropology helps us to find meaning and purpose in our professional and personal lives.
