Hi I am Dr Roland Kapferer, I teach Anthropology
at Deakin University and I am here to welcome
you to Anthropology. Anthropology, what is
it, it is the study of human beings, literally
the biggest and most relevant experience you
can have today at any University. It will
prepare you for just about everything you
need to be prepared for, in the workplace
today. What is it, the study of human beings
in all their diversity, all their cultural
experience around the globe. You will literally
go on a journey around the world with us and
you will see fascinating things, strange rituals,
exotic rituals like being buried alive in
Africa, zombie rituals. You will see contemporary
rituals, phone rituals, social media practices,
everything that human beings do today and
are beginning to experience today, are part
of what Anthropologists study. As I say, the
most relevant and exciting experience, you
will have in any university course today.
Join us please. Welcome.
