This page describes the requirements for the minor in Anthropology. Note that at UWGB there is no major in anthropology and that we mean the minor to be combined with other programs in interesting ways. A major in an interdisciplinary program combined with a minor in anthropology can provide a rich educational experience that can lead in one of several interesting intellectual and vocational directions. See the other sub-pages of the anthropology web page that explain combinations with the programs in Social Change and Development, Humanistic Studies, Human Development, and Human Biology. Also advisors in those programs would be happy to talk to you about the combination.
Anthropology has the broadest scope of all the social sciences.
All societies at all points in prehistory and history, in all parts of the world, may be studied by anthropologists. Anthropology is the holistic study of humans. It includes both the biology of human populations, and the study of human culture and society. Further all human institutions are meat for the anthropological stew. The aim is to understand human social groups as wholes and to understand the institutions found within them as systems.
