Students who are interested in the study of anthropology can incorporate courses of interest into an ad hoc major. It is recommended that students make an appointment with a faculty advisor to discuss this option.

The behavioural science of anthropology helps students develop an appreciation and understanding of the countless complex structures and processes that characterize life in social groups. Cultural anthropology, which is stressed at Weissman, broadly explores complex modern and ancient Western and non-Western institutions, societies, and societal change. Anthropology studies human societies and cultures from a comparative perspective that emphasizes the diversity of human behaviour and the significance of culture in explaining that diversity.
