Sociologists and anthropologists investigate how societies are organized, how cultures are reproduced, and how these processes shape individual identities.

Anthropology is the documenting of the diverse ways humans live. At JMU, anthropology majors review many different factors to uncover the answers to these deep questions. The examination of artifacts, beliefs, and values helps anthropologists to obtain specific clues about human life. In order to gather information about beliefs and values, anthropologists often work directly with the people who they are studying. This fascinating, hands-on field offers a lifetime of learning experiences and remarkably flexible career options.
