The Institute for Intercultural and Anthropological Studies at Western Michigan University provides WMU students and employees as well as community members new opportunities to participate in interdisciplinary research, experience collaborative instruction and engage in intercultural activities. It is home to WMU’s existing undergraduate major and minor in anthropology, as well as the recently reinstated African American and African Studies major and minor.
