Its collections include material tied to Indigenous cultures of the Western Hemisphere and Oceania, plus European and North African Paleolithic cultures. Students help identify objects, curate exhibits, and preserve collections, and the museum supports interdisciplinary labs across campus. The museum is accredited by the American Alliance of Museums.
