Description
People-watchers, unite! If you love studying human behavior-past and present-then welcome to anthropology. UB’s anthropology program is the only major that’s focused on humankind as a whole. It’s truly one of the best ways to gain a thorough understanding of human diversity as you study people through a historical, global lens and see how we adapt over time and space. If you’re interested in any discipline such as social science, natural science (like biology and anatomy) and history but want more, then keep reading.
