solely to seek a Master's degree of Anthropology

[Chong0318]

Hi

1. For my planning, I just want solely to seek a Master's degree of Anthropology in US, but it seems most American University are not admitted to that. So far as I know the following schools have master program. Columbia, UCLA, Brandeis,Rutgers. Does anybody know more ?

2. My interest are tourism anthropology and visual, anyone have some idea which school have offers? Thanks !

I think that U Southern California offers an MA in visual anthropology. But you should email the department to check, because the website says they have a PhD track but that isn't true, they did away with that a few years ago.

George Washington University offers a terminal MA degree in Anthropology.

Thanks for the information！the university is “ Best known for its pioneering role in visual anthropology”.

Thanks! Yes, I just checked their web, actually now I have found more state level universities who offer terminal MA degree. like University of Northern Arizona,University of North Texas, Cal State Univ. Long Beach etc. but seems few are strong in tourism ...

Georgia State would be a good choice as well, I have a few friends in my cohort that is interested in visual anth/culture and tourism. You may want to check us out, plus there are opportunities for funding.

For tourism, take a look at Amanda Stronza at Texas A&M. She's not in the anthropology department there but did her PhD in anthro.

yeah, she is in Dept of recreation, park and tourism, interesting, first time I heard about this department, she seems more focus on ecology and tourism.
