Professional anthropologists work in a variety of public and private sector fields outside academia, from business to medicine to international development. When planning for a career as a professional anthropologist, it is useful to think about what skills you have to offer to a future employer. In our program, we prioritize skill-building and problem-solving both inside and outside the classroom. We encourage you to take advantage of internship opportunities to get real-world work experience. These experiences help you build your resume, expand your network and get invaluable practical training that better equips you to land a job after graduation.
