Anthropology Club

The UIC Undergraduate Anthropology Club is run by current students interested in and studying anthropology. You do not need to be a major to join! The club organizes social events, study halls, field trips to nearby archaeological and cultural sites of interest, and lectures. Join us at our weekly meetings to experience anthropology outside of the classroom, learn about special opportunities in the field, and make new friends!
