Would you like to be an archaeologist?  Hunt for Neandertal fossils?  Live among tribesmen in the Amazon or highland New Guinea?  Do research on the spread of diseases or human genetics?  Work in international business?  Help fight poverty in Mexico, Africa, or America's inner cities?  Help large corporations function more efficiently?  Document languages in danger of extinction?  Work in a museum?  Anthropologists do all that!

Anthropology studies humanity unlimited by time, place, or aspect.  Anthropologists look for interactions among culture, biology, and the external environment and bring to their work, in whatever careers they choose, a holistic perspective on human behavior that allows them to understand the functioning of human groups and apply their skills and insights in any setting.  This will make you comfortable, as well as competitive, in a world of increasing multiculturalism and international interaction.  More
