About The Degree:
Anthropology is the story of humanity, our evolution in Africa, and subsequent movements across the planet. In addition, it addresses the range of human cultural variation, and the shared social and biological universals that together unite the species as a single whole. That holistic comparative approach is the hallmark of anthropology. The minor in cultural anthropology provides a solid introduction to the four sub-fields of the discipline, as well as its applied dimension, which addresses issues of international concern, such as development and human rights. The Native American Students Association (NASA) is open to all students.
What You'll Learn:
- About the range of human cultural variation and the shared universals of humanity.
- An understanding of the native tribes of North America (excluding Mexico) and magic, rituals and religions.
- A comprehension of globalization, language & culture and advanced topics in anthropology.
This Degree is Great for You if:
- You want to complement a major in sociology, psychology, history, political science, modern language, communication or international studies.
- You want to more fully understand the culture, development and progression of natives of North America.
- You want to work on a Master's degree or Ph.D.
