The mission of the Sociology/Anthropology program at Truman State University is to offer an exemplary undergraduate education in sociology and anthropology in the context of a liberal arts and sciences environment at a public institution of higher learning. To that end, sociology and anthropology students are introduced to perspectives for understanding human behavior and human conditions past and present. While sociology focuses more on large-scale, industrialized societies like the one we live in, anthropology emphasizes smaller-scale societies and long-term patterns of biological and cultural change.
