About Us

The Department of Anthropology at the University of California, Santa Barbara is a medium sized department with an excellent faculty, diverse research interests, high national visibility, and a reputation for first rate graduate and undergraduate programs. In addition to the quality of training offered by the department, we take pride in fostering an atmosphere of congeniality, which we believe greatly enhances the student experience in our department. In October 2001 the National Association of Graduate-Professional Students survey of US graduate programs rated UCSB among its top five anthropology programs; click here for details.

Graduate study is offered in three areas of specialization: archaeology, biosocial anthropology, and sociocultural anthropology. The department averages about 85 graduate students enrolled at any one time. Departmental facilities are located in the Humanities & Social Sciences Building(HSSB).
