Under certain circumstances, with the approval of the adviser or department chair, up to six units may be accepted from related disciplines.
The Anthropology degree may be effectively combined with subject matter studies for either the multiple subject credential (K-8) or single subject credential (7-12) in Social Science. Undergraduates are encouraged to work with the Center for Careers in Teaching (657-278-7130) as early as possible in their academic careers to plan efficient course selections for general education, major and electives. With careful planning, it may be possible to enter the credential program in the senior year of the bachelor’s degree. Postgraduate students should contact the Admission to Teacher Education office in the College of Education (657-278-3352) to obtain information on attending an overview presentation.
Twenty-one units must be taken to fulfill requirements for a minor.

Anthro 101 Introduction to Biological Anthropology (3)
Anthro 102 Introduction to Cultural Anthropology (3)
Anthro 103 Introduction to Archaeology (3)
Anthro 480 History of Anthropology (3)
Anthro 481 Contemporary Anthropology (3)
Six units of 300- or 400-level courses in anthropology.
The program offers advanced study of general anthropology, while simultaneously encouraging specialization in one (or more) of the anthropological subdisciplines: archaeology; cultural anthropology; anthropological linguistics; and evolutionary anthropology. Opportunities for field and laboratory research, and other related learning experiences permit students to enlarge upon formal classroom training and work independently with original data. Students may pursue a thesis or project of either a traditional or more exploratory character. Efforts are made to assist individuals to plan programs that will meet their individual needs and interests.
The deadlines for completing online applications are March 1 for the fall semester and Oct. 1 for the spring semester (see http://www.csumentor.edu). Mailed applications need to be postmarked by the same deadlines. However, deadlines may be changed based upon enrollment projections.
There are two steps in the application process: (1) apply online to the university (see http://www.csumentor.edu); and (2) apply to the department, in care of the Graduate Program Adviser (see http://anthro.fullerton.edu/Grad.htm). Arrange to have two letters of recommendation sent to the Graduate Program Adviser. Please check with the graduate adviser for department deadlines.|
An applicant must meet the university requirements for conditionally classified graduate standing. The university requires a baccalaureate from an accredited institution and a grade-point average of at least 2.5 in the last 60 semester units attempted (see section of this catalog on admission of graduates for complete statement and procedures). Admission is contingent upon evaluation and acceptance by the Graduate Affairs Committee.
The Department of Anthropology requires a grade-point average of 3.0 in all undergraduate coursework in anthropology. Students with limited subject or grade deficiencies may be considered for admission to the program if they agree to complete, with at least a “B” (3.0) average, additional courses selected by the Graduate Study Committee. Subject deficiencies must be met prior to candidacy. Students entering the MA program from other fields or other departments of anthropology should discuss appropriate course substitution with the graduate adviser. The department does not permit substitutions for the core courses.
A student who meets the requirements for conditionally classified graduate standing, as well as the following requirements, will be granted classified graduate standing upon the development of an approved study plan:
For continuation in the program, a “B” (3.0) average, with no grade below “C” (2.0) must be maintained for all work in the study plan.
Students must remain continuously enrolled, either by enrolling in at least one Anthropology course each semester or by enrolling in Graduate Studies 700. Students may request a waiver of this requirement for one or two semesters if professional purposes require absence from campus. A student who is not continuously enrolled will be required to apply for readmission to the program.
A thesis or a project, including an oral examination, must be completed for the degree.
The progress of graduate students will be reviewed prior to classification and again before advancement to candidacy. Students must demonstrate competence in a foreign language or quantitative methods.
For further information, consult the Anthropology graduate program adviser. See also the Department of Anthropology’s website (http://anthro.fullerton.edu).
