ANTHROPOLOGY Coordinator: Rosemary Conover Telephone Contact: Fran Holm 626-6241 Description Anthropology is a synthesizing discipline which focuses on humans as bearers of culture and attempts to understand and order the variety of human behavior patterns in a holistic framework. It embraces not only contemporary ethnic groups and their problems, but also the historic and prehistoric past on a world-wide basis. Fields include archaeology, linguistics, ethnology, physical, and social anthropology. Students majoring in the sciences will find archaeology, with its emphasis on the means of scientific problem solving, to be a stimulating discipline for extending their science education into the human arena. PROGRAM: ANTHROPOLOGY MINOR General Requirements: • A grade of C or better in minor courses. Specific Requirements: • A minor must have a minimum of 25 credit hours in Anthropology courses. • Anthropology courses required are: Anthro SS101 (5) and 460 (5).
