What You Will Study

As suggested by its Greek etymology, Anthropology is the study of humans in the broadest sense possible. The anthropological perspective, by definition interdisciplinary, extends from biological to sociocultural approaches in accounting for human diversity as observed in different societies, past and present. The unique anthropological research method of ethnography is used as a valuable tool of critical analysis in a great variety of topics ranging from kinship, economic and political systems to religious practices, from material culture and everyday practices to identity issues.   

The Minor in Anthropology helps students in Sociology, Communication, International Relations, Film Studies, History, Business, Marketing, Psychology or even the arts and the humanities gain a competitive edge in their respective careers through study of global societies and cultural diversity. Furthermore, it enhances their critical, analytical, and reflective thinking, while fostering their social skills in cross-cultural communication.
