人类学文学士

人类学是对各行各业，各种社会，世界各地以及所有时间点的人类的比较研究。它有四个主要子领域：生物人类学，语言人类学，社会文化人类学和考古学。这一领域为我们的生物学和文化进化背景提供了见识，并为我们的经济，社会，政治和宗教系统之间的相互关系提供了一个整体视图。它有助于我们反思自己的社会制度，个人与社会之间的相互关系以及思想和情感发展的原因，这些思想和情感可以促进社会和文化群体之间的联系或冲突。人类学专业为个人做好有关人类学，相关领域和专业课程的进阶培训或职业的准备。如果您是学士学位学生，该专业将为您提供人类学
Anthropology provides insight into our biological and cultural evolutionary background and offers a holistic view of how our economic, social, political, and religious systems relate to one another. It helps us reflect on our own social systems, on the interrelationships between individuals and societies, and on the reasons for the development of thoughts and feelings that can promote connection or conflict across social and cultural groups. BA students are encouraged (and BS students are required) to do field work or research and have many opportunities to study abroad. The research specialties of faculty span a variety of topics, numerous regions across the globe, and all four anthropology subfields. The department's resources include well-equipped laboratories for archaeology, biological anthropology, and linguistic anthropology.<br><br>The major in anthropology prepares individuals to pursue graduate study in anthropology or related fields or to earn a professional degree in law, business, or one of the health sciences. Graduates find rewarding careers in government, international affairs, conservation, economic development, urban and regional planning, social work, museum work, and education. Many work to help resolve contemporary world problems by joining the Peace Corps, the AmeriCorps program, or an international or domestic non-governmental organization.
