Anthropology
Anthropologists seek to understand the many varied peoples and cultures of the world
— past and present — and how they came to be. We offer a major and minor for students
interested in better understanding our diverse world.
Gerontology
Help older adults age gracefully. Missouri State University offers the only bachelor’s
degree in gerontology in Missouri.
Sociology
Missouri State is one of very few universities that offers an emphasis in public sociology,
which focuses on community engagement. Our program integrates sociological skills
into course work and research, providing opportunities to work with local organizations.
Careers and outcomes
Sociology, anthropology and gerontology majors go on to careers in many different
fields including human services and non-profit management, healthcare, the justice
system, and research, among others.
