<p>“More Beloit graduates have earned Ph.D.s in anthropology than graduates of any other undergraduate liberal arts college not affiliated with a university.”

<p>That is incorrect, as that honor belongs to Bryn Mawr by a long shot. Beloit is second, however. </p>

<p>I find Cultural Anthropology to be fascinating…it is one of my first major preferences. However, I’ve heard that it’s hard to land a job in/or related to the field without a master’s or a doctorate. To obtain these further degrees though, I would need a stable, well-paying job to afford them. I’m worried if I got a Bachelor’s in Anthro, I wouldn’t be able to find a job, which would mean I wouldn’t be able to get any more degrees. Has anyone here succeeded without a Master’s or Doctorate in Anthropology? Is it worth it to go further, or is it still difficult to find jobs? Am I better off majoring in Journalism or History? Or should I major in Anthro and minor in one of the areas above?</p>
<p>
Generally that’s true. The choicest jobs are those that require a PhD. Teaching, research, sometimes museum work.</p>
<p>It’s possible to break into anthropology with just a BA, though, and lots of people do. Most field archaeology, park service, CRM, and related careers don’t require further education.</p>
<p>Hi, which of these do you think is best for Forensic and Archeological Anthropology?</p>
<p>so which school will be better for soicultural anthropology? USC or UCSD?</p>
<p>I had a discussion with my Anthro prof who is also an Assistant prof at USC working on his PhD today. He recommended USC as top notch for Visual Anthropology, which includes taking film classes and such. UCSD also has a focus towards Psychological Anthropology if you are interesed in that. It really depends on your subdicipline, bio/arch/cultural, etc. Buut, UCs, UCSD included, generally rank higher on top Anthro school listings: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-search-selection/462183-top-colleges-anthropology.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-search-selection/462183-top-colleges-anthropology.html</a></p>
<p>Which college is best for Forensic and Archeological anthropology. I heard that Brown, Dartmouth, Nothwestern, and U. of Penn have great programs, but are they any good in these fields of anthropology?</p>
<p>Those are two entirely different fields. Boston U is the only school I can think of that’s fairly strong in both.</p>
<p>Thank you! That really helps.</p>
<p>Boston U anthro grad here. It is the only school in the US where anthropology and archeology are separate (its very common for them to be separate in Europe). Many archeology students liked it since they could focus on archeology classes and not have to take too many socio-cultural classes. I also recommend the socio-cultural track if you are interested in Middle-Eastern/Muslim cultures or South East Asia. The majority of the professors study those areas. Also despite the largeness of the school, anthro had a class of about 40. We all take 2 requires senior seminars on theory together, so it was great to know everyone in my class.
Also in columbia grad school. Must say, the professors are top notch. Many are the “whose who” of anthropology. A strong choice for those interested in feminist anthropology. Not sure how office hours work for undergrads though.</p>
<p>Is U of O a very good school for anthropology. I want to go to many other schools but U of O is close and I can’t afford to travel to check out schools. Any advice on this as well as if U of O is good enough, I mean is there someway that I can get a scholarship or something to just look at schools.</p>
<p>How good is University of Chicago’s Anthropolgy Department. I am interested in Forensic, Biological, and Archaeological. I know this is broad but I am very interested…</p>
<p>Hi, I was wondering if the University of Chicago’s Anthropolgy Department is any good. Specifically in Forensic/Biological and Archaeological Anthropology. Please help.</p>
<p>Bryn Mawr counts as being associated with a larger university (Penn) and the rest of its consortium (Swarthmore and Haverford)</p>
<p>Nicklee,</p>
<p>U of Chicago is fairly weak in biological anthro as a whole and has no forensic anthro faculty members that I know of. Also, there are numerous universities that go by U of O (Oregon? Ohio? Oklahoma?)</p>
<p>Oh I meant the University of Oregon. Thank you.</p>
<p>So is University of Penn the best for forensic, biological, and archeological?</p>
<p>Hi, I’m Angie Castro. I’m from Peru and I want to know wich colleges are the best for fpfysical/forensic anthropology. I’m currently studying archaeology in an University here in Lima [Major National University of San Marcos], but i notice that i can’t study there the forensic degree so i wanna make a transfer or start over to other university in the United States, because I already know that there are some great college for Physical/Forensic… Somebody can help in my research? I would be thing in the world!! Thanks a lot! I appreciate it!.</p>
<p>Mercyhurst College in Erie, PA has an incredible Forensic Archeology/Anthropology program.</p>
<p>Good the website, lots of interesting opportunities.</p>
