- With a degree in anthropology,
students can get really any kind of job,
go into any kind of career that a student
in most any lib ed major would.
More specifically though,
what are the more typical
directions for anthropology,
would be in things like Museum Studies,
working for nonprofits who might work
with particular groups, ethnic groups
that are growing communities in the US,
there's also opportunities
for archeology in particular,
we provide a field school
every two or three years,
that gives students hands-on experience
in doing archeology.
They get to try it out, be an archeologist
for four weeks in the summer,
and see if it's something
they'd like to do.
- There's a lot of different
options within anthropology,
but I'm really interested
in historic cultivation,
something I've always been
interested in since I was a kid,
I've been interested in
history so I was looking
at careers that really did history,
and that's really something
that caught my interest.
You know, keeping history like, preserved,
and just making sure we can show a lot
to other people, so we can learn from it.
- Well my thing was
always Indiana Jones, so,
archeology is the main one, but also just,
with anthropology
itself, you can do a lot,
as far as going around,
traveling, talking to people,
and learning about other cultures.
You can actually go out
and do digs yourself.
- In physical anthropology,
they tend to like
the things that are
forensics-based as well,
so we do things with like,
measuring our old skulls
and determining ancestry and sex,
and pathology and things like that,
and they tend to really enjoy that a lot.
It's a lot more hands-on, and interactive,
and it's not just lecture-based
teaching, which is great.
- I have a really great communication
relationship with my teachers,
they know what's going on,
and what I need to work on,
and we all work together as a group.
They're kind of like
mentors, in a way, actually,
'cause they really care about us,
and I really care about them.
