Geography & Anthropology

Support the Future of Exploration and Understanding: Donate to the Geography & Anthropology Excellence Fund Today!


Embark on a journey with the Department of Geography & Anthropology, where we nurture the next generation of explorers, thinkers, and leaders. With Bachelor of Science degrees in both fields, we delve deep into the scientific study of human societies, their cultural legacies, and the physical and human systems that mold our planet.


Our Geography Program equips students with the knowledge to unravel the complexities of our physical and human environments, offering two specialized tracks in Environmental Geography and Geospatial Analysis.

Our Anthropology Program is a beacon for those fascinated by the diverse stories of humanity, offering insights into our collective past and present through its three options: General Anthropology, Applied Anthropology, and Archaeology.


The mission of the Department of Geography and Anthropology is to advance knowledge, learning, and individual skills in the related disciplines of anthropology and geography. The Department and constituent programs fully support the emphases of the university on:


  • Applied, technical preparation along with broad, theoretical education;
  • Inter-disciplinary approaches,
  • Hands-on, learn-by-doing pedagogy in keeping with the curriculum,
  • Internationalization of the curriculum
  • Multiculturalism in and out of the classroom, and
  • Student- and learning-oriented teaching.

Your support is not just a donation; it's a leap towards creating enduring, positive change. Together, we can ensure that the spirit of discovery and understanding continues to thrive, inspiring generations to come. Your contribution will empower our dedicated students and faculty as they push the boundaries of research, engage in transformative learn-by-doing opportunities, and meet the educational demands of today and tomorrow. Join us in making a difference—donate to the Geography & Anthropology Excellence Fund today!
