Pacific’s anthropology minor gives you a wider lens on the world. You’ll explore how people live, work and think in different cultures, past and present, and you’ll pick up the tools anthropologists use to study human behavior.

Anthropology is a solid add-on to many majors. If you’re headed toward teaching, medicine, pharmacy, dentistry, business, law or counseling, anthropology helps you understand people better and connect across cultures. In other words, it makes you a stronger communicator, a better teammate and a more thoughtful future professional.

Note: 1) At least two courses must be taken at Pacific as specified below.
