Program Overview

The anthropology program at Diablo Valley College offers students the opportunity to study humankind from the broadest biological, historical, and geographical perspectives. Anthropology is a multidisciplinary and yet holistic way to study all aspects of humanity, from biological origins to ways of social behavior, past and present. Anthropology presents to the student a world view that is personally enriching as well as practical. Courses in the program offer knowledge of social and cultural aspects of behavior, as well as the biological nature of humans. Courses included in the anthropology major are intended to give a general understanding of human biology, ecology, evolution, prehistory, and the nature of human cultures. 

This curriculum is designed to provide an opportunity for the anthropology major to achieve an associate in arts degree while completing the requirements for transfer to a California State University (CSU) or other four-year college or university to earn a bachelor's degree in anthropology. A baccalaureate degree is recommended preparation for those considering professional careers in anthropology. Completion of this curriculum will demonstrate commitment to the field and provide comprehensive preparation for upper-division work.
