Anthropology
ANTHROPOLOGY seeks answers to an enormous variety of questions about humans: when, where and why humans appeared on the earth, how and why they have changed since then, and how and why modern human populations vary in certain physical features. Anthropology is also interested in how and why societies in the past and present have varied in their customary ideas and practices. There is a practical side to anthropology too. Applied and practicing anthropologists put anthropological methods, information, and results to use, in efforts to solve practical problems. We call it a holistic approach to the study of humankind; therefore anthropology courses are beneficial to students of any discipline which studies or interacts with human beings, such as medicine, sociology, psychology, history, political science, criminal justice, education, economics, business, and many more.
