The minor is of value to students who wish to integrate interests in a wide range of humanist concerns with the cross-cultural perspective and analytic framework provided by anthropology. A student desiring a minor in anthropology must register with the Department and take a minimum of 17 credits of anthropology courses, at least 8 of which must be taken at SUNY Poly.
