The 人类学 program at New College seeks to impart a broad perspective on past and present peoples and cultures around the world through a study of the methods and materials of the discipline.
关于 the 人类学 Area of Concentration
学生 develop a solid knowledge of the scope and objectives of cultural anthropology and archaeology, and of at least one other sub-discipline (biological anthropology and/or linguistics). They also acquire in-depth critical knowledge of the theory and methods of anthropology. 学生 are encouraged to participate in fieldwork and develop their research skills and a critical perspective through the completion of a senior research project, conducted under the supervision of a faculty member in the program.
学生 and faculty have cooperated in projects ranging from archaeological research in Florida, 墨西哥, 中美洲, and the Middle East to active planning for the homeless in 萨拉索塔, from critiques of sexism in human evolutionary models to studies of the creolization process in Black English Vernacular. 学生 have conducted independent research worldwide, including studies of remote tribal groups in West Papua and Amazonian Peru. Theory and practice go hand-in-hand as students develop their understanding of the world and share this with fieldworkers, 学者, and planners outside the New College community.
“I tell my students that archeologists have the most unlikely job of saving the lives of people who have passed. If it wasn’t for this work, we would know nothing about them.”
