Anthropology Coordinator: Rosemary Conover Telephone Contact: Carol Jensen 801-626-6241 Athropology is a synthesizing discipline which focuses on human cultural patterns and biological attributes word-wide and throughout time. It takes a holistic approach, examining both human differences and similarities bioculturally, and embracing contemporary human groups and issues as well as our historic and prehistoric past. Specialized fields include archaeology, linguistics, ethnology, and biological anthropology. Students are taught to question and examine the significance of beliefs, attitudes and prejudices, and to understand the anthropological position of relativism and valuing cultural and biological variation. The program prepares students for a broad range of public and private sector employment in anthropology- related fields or to enter professional or graduate schools appropriate to their interests. Anthropology is an essential discipline in the 21st Century, contributing knowledge for successful living and working in our diverse human world. ANTHROPOLOGY BACHELOR DEGREE (B.S.
