Anthropology (General Major)

Anthropology is a science that examines human issues from both cultural and biological perspectives. The narrowest concern of this discipline is the survival of humanity, while its broadest concerns address the conditions of continuity and change for all human life. The department offers courses in socio-cultural anthropology or ethnology, archaeology, language and culture, and biological or physical anthropology. While academic staff of the department have research interests that range from northern climates to the tropics and from Asia to the Americas, the department is also involved in research that sheds light on Manitoba and its people.
