Anthropology (literally the study of humans) is an extremely broad and diverse field concerned with every aspect of the human condition: past, present and future. Students studying Anthropology at the University of Tennessee learn of this breadth and diversity by taking courses in Cultural, Biological and Archaeological Anthropology. Research conducted by the faculty and graduate students of the Department is as wide-ranging (both topically and geographically) as the field itself.

The concentration in Disasters, Displacement and Human Rights (DDHR) is intended for current Anthropology majors wishing to develop specialized knowledge and research skills in the anthropological study of natural and unnatural disasters and humanitarian crises, forced migration, and human rights investigations, policies, practices, and norms. All prerequisites and requirements for the Anthropology major are required for the concentration. Credits earned toward the concentration may also count for departmental distribution requirements for the major.

Students pursuing a DDHR concentration must submit a form to the department and complete the following courses among the 30 required upper-division credits for the major. Special topics courses, and independent or foreign study courses, where appropriate, may be petitioned for the DDHR concentration.

The Disasters, Displacement, and Human Rights Program (DDHR) promotes holistic training, collaborative research, rigorous theoretical approaches, and applied work on historical and contemporary problems broadly associated with human rights concepts and norms. DDHR faculty and students study global and local issues in the past and present, including migration, displacement, trafficking/slavery, and refugees and asylum seekers; structural and political violence and dynamics of peace and justice; economic development, inequality, resource access/extraction, and food security; post-conflict investigations and transitional justice; identity and discrimination; and the causes and consequences of wars, (un)natural disasters, and climate change. We foster critical and nuanced perspectives on the substantive concepts of human rights and the international legal norms and institutions that embody and enact them. Through innovative, inter-subdisciplinary work in cultural, biological/forensic and archaeological anthropology we contribute to the development of anthropology as a science, as an art, and as a tool for improving the human condition.

Concentrations:

• Anthropology Major, BA – Disasters, Displacement and Human Rights Concentration
