Associate Degrees for Transfer in Anthropology Riverside City College

Introduction
The Associate in Arts in Anthropology for Transfer degree is designed to prepare the student for transfer to institutions of higher education and is specifically intended to satisfy the lower-division requirements for the baccalaureate degree in Anthropology at a California State University. It will also provide the student with a sufficient academic basis from which to pursue a career in the social science profession. The student will be afforded the opportunity to study the nature of human diversity from a genetic, archeological, linguistic, and cultural basis. The breadth of Anthropology will be examined to include the historical and contemporary theory and research as the basis from which to gain an in-depth awareness and understanding of humans and the world in which we live.
