Includes the topics of major cross-cultural studies with a focus on language, economics, marriage, kinship, gender, political organization, stratification, and spiritual belief systems. Examines traditional and contemporary practices, the processes of culture change, and the application of cultural anthropology to practical society problems. Prerequisite: College-level reading and writing skills (WR121) are strongly recommended for success in this course.
-
3.00 Credits
(1 class hr/wk, 1 cr) As needed Offers topics of study in anthropology with individual research and/or field study. Prerequisite: WR 121 English Composition.
-
3.00 Credits
(3 class hrs/wk, 3 cr) As needed Examines the ethnographic process anthropologists use to study other cultures, the process of comparing two or more cultures in an ethnologic context, and the development of cultures over time to be what they are today. A methodology for engaging in culturally relative dialogue is introduced and then emphasized in all learning activities. Prerequisite: College-level reading and writing skills (WR121) are strongly recommended for success in this course.
