How to Declare the Major

To declare Anthropology as your major, or add it as a second major, make an appointment to meet with the Anthropology Undergraduate Academic Advisor, Roberto Leni (leni@usc.edu). During the meeting, the Academic Advisor will:

  • Give you an overview of the field of Anthropology;
  • Go over requirements for one or all the majors offered by the USC Anthropology Department;
  • Develop a course plan for your entire stay at USC;
  • Examine study abroad and research opportunities;
  • Speak with you about your plans after graduation.
