ANTH 1501 - Global Social Science: An Introduction to Anthropology


This Global Theme course uses the methods and insights of the social and natural sciences to explore the central question of what it means to be a citizen of the world. Through the study of one or more different peoples, societies, or culture across the globe students will be able to better understand themselves as part of a complex, interconnected world. ANTH 1501 is a holistic exploration of humanity across time and space. It explores human evolution and our relationships with other primates; the connections between language and culture; cross-cultural similarities and differences; and the various ways culture and societies have changed from the distant past to the present. Throughout the course, students will gain an understanding of contemporary human diversity, social and environmental problems, power and inequalities, and global connections. May not be taken for credit and for a grade if credit has been received for ANTH 1101 .
