Social & Behavioral Sciences: Associate in Arts in Anthropology for Transfer
The Associate in Arts in Anthropology for Transfer (AA-T in Anthropology) degree program has been developed to provide the student with a fundamental understanding of the field of Anthropology and its four main sub-fields: Cultural Anthropology, Physical Anthropology, Archaeology and Linguistics. Anthropology is the study of humans, both past and present. It is a holistic discipline, which means that anthropologists study the similarities and differences in human biological and cultural origins, evolution, adaptations and features across the globe throughout all of human history. From this wide perspective anthropology helps us to understand other peoples and thereby enables us to better understand ourselves.
The Associate in Arts in Anthropology for Transfer (AA-T in Anthropology) degree meets the requirements of SB 1440 for Associate Degrees for Transfer (ADT). These degrees are intended to make it easier for students to transfer to California State University campuses, but do not exclude admittance to other colleges or universities.
