性奴调教

The anthropology major at 性奴调教 explores the study of humans. The anthropological endeavor involves both the sociocultural and biological aspects of humankind. The study of anthropology requires a holistic approach; it is comprehensive, inclusive and integrates information from many areas of study through ethnographic, biological, cross-cultural, archaeological and sociological inquiries.

An anthropological perspective 鈥� including an examination of the similarities and differences among human groups, cultures and societies both locally and worldwide 鈥� emphasizes the concepts of cultural relativism, multicultural perspectives and globalization processes that are vital to many areas of study at 性奴调教.

By participating in anthropology courses in the Department of Sociology and Anthropology, students will be further prepared to successfully function in an interconnected world. The major and minor degrees in anthropology complement .

The anthropology program also supports an active Anthropology Club and houses the Eta Chapter of Lambda Alpha, the national anthropology honor society. Both organizations are engaged in numerous outreach programs at 性奴调教 and within the greater St. Louis community.

Curriculum Overview

Key program components include a rigorous social science curriculum focused on the subfields of cultural anthropology, biological anthropology and archaeology; lab courses that provide a hands-on learning dimension; practical applied experiences through fieldwork opportunities and independent research projects; and connections made with the larger community via internships, study abroad opportunities and a senior capstone project.

Students choose an emphasis in one of four subfields of anthropology:

• Cultural/social anthropology: the study of human cultures in the present or recent past
• Physical/biological anthropology: the study of humans from a biological and evolutionary perspective
• Linguistic anthropology: the interdisciplinary study of how language influences social life
• Archeology: the study of the ancient and recent human past through excavation, analysis and interpretation of material remains

Fieldwork and Research Opportunities

Fieldwork takes place within and outside the U.S. This allows students to experience other cultures in a unique, firsthand way and gain a greater appreciation for cultures different from their own. Faculty are pleased to offer 性奴调教 students dynamic courses and fieldwork opportunities in the upcoming months and years that will enrich their classroom learning and lives.

The Archeology Lab provides an excellent workspace for students to explore and contribute to the science of archeology. Each semester, the lab provides hands-on opportunities for students to explore prehistoric and historic lithics, ceramics and other materials and to develop student-initiated research projects.

The Urban Lab makes the city of St. Louis a classroom. Through coursework, internships and field schools, you鈥檒l have the chance to conduct original research on urban culture, inequality and development.
