Student Research in Anthropology

Anthropology Student Research Opportunities

Real Research... Real Opportunity...

 

Students in the Anthropology program at Western State Colorado University are encouraged (in many courses required) to develop their own creative and relevant research projects in which they are responsible for design, implementation, and publication or presentation of their results. In carrying out their own projects, anthropology students at Western State Colorado University get a jump on research opportunities that are usually only available to graduate students at larger institutions. Many of the projects listed below illustrate the commitment of WSCU's Anthropology program to undergraduate research.
