Cultural Anthropology and Human Geography
Humans have a relationship with the world unlike any other organism on Earth, and this course explores the consequences of this- both positives and challenges. The Cultural Anthropology and Human Geography Elective aims to give students the opportunity to gain a better understanding of this relationship and how, more specifically as members of cultural groups, they can impact the world around them in terms of environmental, social, political, and global conflict and change. The class will also give students the chance to explore how this information is found through different Anthropological methods, such as data studies, field surveys, excavations, and more. Students will both look at past historical archaeological examples as well as current trends and patterns to determine a course of action on how to solve modern day problems and situations.
