Anthropology
Anthropology is the comparative study of human societies and cultures. Anthropology concerns all aspects of being human, throughout all time and worldwide. It is an examination of human nature, human society, and human past. The study of Anthropology provides an understanding of the globally interconnected world in which we live, the human past and present, and the unity and diversity that characterize the human species. Anthropology prepares students for dealing with the challenges of an increasingly international economy, globally connected communities, and multicultural peoples.
The three anthropology courses offered at College of the Desert (Introduction to Cultural Anthropology, Introduction to Physical Anthropology, Introduction to Archaeology/ Prehistory introduce fundamental concepts, theories, methods, data, and references in ways that are exciting and informative for students.
