University of Kentucky Department of Anthropology

The University of Kentucky's Department of Anthropology, established in 1926, is the first anthropology department in the southeastern United States. With a diverse faculty of 22 experts in applied anthropology, archaeology, biological anthropology, and cultural heritage, the department engages in research projects across multiple continents, focusing on themes such as power dynamics, health inequalities, and social justice.

Committed to fostering community values, the department offers undergraduate and graduate programs while hosting events like the Bluegrass Annual Discussion and Friday afternoon talks. These opportunities emphasize the importance of inclusive narratives and the rich tapestry of human experience, aiming to challenge conventional perspectives on identity and diversity.
