Preface

This document describes the graduate program of the Department of Anthropology and explains policies which affect all students in the program.

This document also describes in detail the specific requirements of the graduate curriculum which went into effect in August of 1993.

A major reorganization of the graduate curriculum was instituted in 1984. Minor changes in degree requirements have occurred more frequently. As a general rule, the requirements in force when a student enters the graduate program are the ones that student should fulfill in subsequent years.

If any changes in departmental requirements or clarifications of departmental policies are made during the current academic year, they will be announced in departmental memoranda.

Faculty members and graduate students are asked to read this document thoroughly, and to consult it when questions arise concerning departmental regulations and policies.
