In Introduction to Anthropology, we look at the comparative study of humankind. Our emphasis is on the core concepts, methods and components of the four subfields - Biological Anthropology, Anthropological Archaeology, Linguistic Anthropology, and Sociocultural Anthropology (shortened to Cultural Anthropology). In addition, the course connects anthropology to our everyday life. It focuses on understanding and appreciating the diversity of human beings through examining language, gender, religion and other societal institutions. The course concludes with the role of anthropology in our changing world.
