A Message from the Chair
On behalf of our faculty, staff and students, I welcome you to learn about our discipline and our programs at UTRGV. If you have any additional questions, please feel free to contact me. The Department of Anthropology at UTRGV consists of 11 full-time faculty members. It offers three different B.A. programs--Anthropology, Anthropology with a concentration in Archaeology, and Anthropology with a concentration in Global Health and Migration--and a M.A.I.S. (Master of Interdisciplinary Studies) with a concentration in Anthropology as well as three popular undergraduate minors--Anthropology, Archaeology, and Global Health and Migration. Anthropology faculty conduct research and publish on a range of topics, including archaeology, race and ethnicity, immigration, religion, gender, family, and health, Mexican American culture, and biological anthropology. The program supports an active Anthropology Club and a chapter of Lambda Alpha, the International Anthropology Honor Society. We invite you to learn more about our academic programs and our faculty and students.
