Purpose: This curriculum is designed for persons who plan to complete an Associate of Arts Degree at Shawnee Community College and then transfer to Southeast Missouri State University to complete a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Anthropology.  The Associate of Arts Degree fulfills the lower division University Studies requirement.  Southeast’s Anthropology program is designed to provide a common set of learning experiences that characterize the breadth and diversity of the discipline.  The program establishes a solid foundation for graduate study and a variety of careers in industry, museums, public service and international affairs.  Students selecting the Archaeology track are prepared for entry level positions in the field.

*Archaeology is one of the four fields of anthropology.  Students wishing to enter the field of archaeology take a major in anthropology, with a course sequence in archaeology.

The Bachelor of Arts degree requires 12 hours in one or more foreign languages and a minor of at least 15 hours.  Students should work with their advisor to determine their specific needs.

All anthropology/archaeology courses taken prior to enrolling at Southeast will be accepted as hours toward the major.
