Hon Cultural Anth

Catalog description

This course provides students with an introduction to the cultural and social systems that humans have devised over time and space, using a comparative anthropological perspective. The course will also focus on using the methods, theories, and concepts of cultural anthropology to understand and explain the cultural diversity seen around the world. The honors section of ANT 152 provides a smaller class size, a discussion-based format, and a strong comparative framework with which to learn about the impact of culture on the human experience. Students will also write comparative essays and have a chance to work collaboratively in small groups to complete class assignments. Open to Honors College students only.
