Are you fascinated by human cultures and how they operate and interact? Does delving into the human past and present thrill you? Anthropology looks at the big picture of all humans in all times in all places.
Anthropologists study the meaning behind human behaviors, traditions and rituals in a holistic manner. By applying the scientific method and systems thinking to human cultures, anthropologists can examine issues including structural violence and inequities. A well-known sub-discipline, archaeology, looks to the past to examine how people lived. Anthropologists also investigate biological aspects of humans, our extinct ancestors and other primates.
