The MA in Anthropology at Michigan State University trains students across a traditional four-field department: cultural anthropology, linguistic anthropology, archaeology and physical anthropology. The programme also has subdisciplinary specialties including medical anthropology and forensic anthropology.
Faculty: College of Social Science | Department: Department of Anthropology | Duration: 30 credits | Study mode: full-time | Location: East Lansing, MI, United States
The 30-credit degree runs under Plan A (thesis, including 4 credits of ANP 899 and an oral thesis defence) or Plan B (final evaluation with a guidance committee). Required courses are ANP 830 Cultural and Linguistic Anthropological Theory and ANP 840 Biocultural Evolution, plus a methods course for the student's subdiscipline and approved electives; at least 21 credits must be in Anthropology.
Applicants to the MA in Anthropology must be currently enrolled in the PhD programme in Anthropology at MSU.
Tuition is charged per credit, so the total depends on the modules you register for each year. Current fees are listed in the official fee schedule.
Graduate applicants can start in fall (late August), spring (January) or summer (May) in the MPH programme; intake terms for other graduate programmes are set by each department or program.
The graduate application fee is $75 for domestic and international applicants, with one fee per application; applicants may submit up to two applications to different graduate majors per semester. Applications are reviewed by the department or program, which sets its own deadlines.
