4.5. Final ConsiderationsOur goal is to become a top-five Anthropology program in terms of undergraduate andgraduate training as well as faculty and student research. However, we recognize there aresome challenges ahead of us if this goal is to become a reality.1. In the undergraduate program, we need to improve our ability to deliver neededcourses to majors and minors. One solution would be to impose a standard annualschedule for the undergraduate curriculum. At the same time, we could better serve ourundergraduate upper division classes by introducing more discussion sections andwriting-intensive exercises via new TA and reader resources.2. In the graduate program, we need to deal with decreasing class sizes at the same time asmeeting our goal of providing all incoming graduate students with multi-year fundingpackages.3. Faculty research and areas of expertise will need to be expanded. Each of thesubdisciplines have strategic hiring plans that are designed to allow the Department tocompete in the national and international academic arena. Collectively, we seeinterdisciplinary research and collaborations with Centers, Interdepartmental DegreePrograms, and Departments as central to this task.-In summary, the Department of Anthropology has continued its intellectual growth. Theundergraduate program remains large and vibrant. The graduate program is diverse and hasseen measurable improvements, particularly in graduate"funding and success on the job market.Through new hires at both the junior and senior levels, our faculty has maintained its nationaland international standing. We believe that we are in a good position to build on existingstrengths, not the least of which is our interdisciplinary focus and our attention to the increasingconnections we see with other units and departments within the University.Sincerely,Alessandro Duranti.Professor and ChairDepartment of AnthropologyP.
