The Anthropology Department's laboratories are set up for teaching and research in three areas: archaeology, cultural anthropology, and physical anthropology. 

The Cultural Laboratory, located in 374 Condon, is a facility for audio tape transcribing, data analysis, and video production and editing. It is equipped with a high capacity Macintosh computer  to be used exclusively for videotape work, a Windows based PC for transcription work and data analysis, and several transcribers. Audio tape recorders and a digital video camera are available to Anthropology faculty and graduate students on a short-term basis. 

The Physical Anthropology Research and Teaching Laboratories are located in 368 and 369 Condon Hall. The teaching lab in 368 Condon Hall provides access to teaching collections for physical anthropology discussion sections and advanced lab classes. The collection includes casts of fossil hominids, hominoids, and extant apes. In addition to extensive fossil hominid casts, the research laboratory provides access to skeletal and dental research and reference collections. The materials are diverse and include primate (including human) skeletal and dental materials, extensive dental casts from South Asia and Oman, casts of paleopathological conditions. The lab has equipment for the preparation of histological sections and digital analysis. Research is conducted under the direction of Professors Joanna Lambert, John Lukacs, Geraldine Moreno-Black, and Paul Simonds. 

The Human Osteology Laboratory is a division of the State Museum of Anthropology responsible for skeletal remains from archaeological and forensic contexts. The lab houses osteological comparative specimens, articles and books on human osteology, and an extensive set of osteological data recorded on Native American skeletal remains. The Museum maintains an internet list of publications and a bibliography of regional publications on human osteology. 

The Primate Ecology Laboratory, located in Condon 306, is a facility devoted to the study of primate biology.  This lab houses a comparative collection of plants fed on by primates in  Uganda, a drying oven for processing plant specimens, and computer stations with printers and scanners for analyzing data related to primate biology.  This laboratory is used by graduate and undergraduate students in primatology and is coordinated by Professor Joanna Lambert.

The Nutritional Anthropology Research Facility, located in 315 Condon Hall,  houses computer stations with software specifically utilized for the analysis of dietary records, such as Food Processor, and EPI-Info, software for both quantitative and qualitative data analysis, as well as reference material related to nutritional anthropology.  The research area is maintained and supervised by Dr. Geraldine Moreno and is utilized by graduate students who are actively engaged in nutritional anthropology research.  Current projects focus on food insecurity studies in Thailand, Ecuador and the United States; Community Supported Agriculture and other sustainable food system research; as well as growth and nutritional status of children in Ecuador and Thailand. 

The Archaeology Research Laboratories in 268 and 264 Condon Hall, house research collections, equipment, a photographic darkroom, and space for specialized analyses related to lithics, ceramics, computer graphics, dietary remains, shell technology, and provenance studies of artifacts. Research is currently being conducted on collections from the Northwest North America, Pacific Islands (Pohnpei, Easter Island, and Samoa), and the California Channel Islands under the direction of Professors William Ayres, Mel Aikens, Don Dumond, Jon Erlandson and Madonna Moss. 

The Archaeology Teaching Lab is located in 264 Condon Hall. This recently remodeled lab houses an extensive collection of Northwest North American and Pacific Islands faunal comparative collections. The Department of Anthropology at the University of Oregon houses a comparative collection of reference faunal specimens on the University of Oregon campus. The comparative collection is used to analyze faunal remains found in archaeological sites located along the North Pacific and the Pacific Islands. Madonna L. Moss is in charge of the North Pacific Collections, while William S. Ayres is in charge of the Pacific Islands Collections. 

The State Museum of Anthropology maintains a comparative faunal collection on campus as well. The lab includes the osteological remains of over 23 mammalian species, 23 species of birds, 6 species of freshwater fish, and an invertebrate collection including ten species of bivalves and six species of univalves. The Archaeological Research Division of the State Museum of Anthropology also houses a comparative faunal collection (specializing in Oregon) in the Museum's Moss Street building. Guy Tasa is charge of the Museum's faunal collection.
