Our Story

The UCLA Department of Anthropology has always taken a broad view of anthropology, maintaining both balance and integration among the four fields (archaeology, biological, sociocultural, and linguistic), which have traditionally characterized the discipline. Established in 1941, the department grew to prominence immediately after World War II and has consistently ranked among the top ten departments in the country, both for the distinction of its faculty and the quality of its teaching. Many faculty members actively engage in research and teaching in two or more fields, and many hold joint appointments in other departments and schools at UCLA. Indeed, Anthropology has ties with many other major departments in the university, offering a rich fare to graduate students.

Our faculty and students are dedicated to resolving fundamental questions that lie at the core of Anthropology as a field of intellectual inquiry. Their work encompasses such topics as the nature of evolutionary processes, human development, emotions and the mind, culture and communicative strategies, health and illness, the development of socio-political complexity across the historical and archaeological record, and the impacts of differential access to power in the contemporary world. To that end, we conduct research in all parts of the world and engage in innovative collaborations that cross traditional sub-disciplinary and disciplinary boundaries.
