Anthropology for Transfer, AA-T

Students majoring in the Associate in Arts in Anthropology for Transfer (AA-T in Anthropology) will focus on the nature and implications of human behavior and interactions through the integration of the four major sub-disciplines of Anthropology. Knowledge and use of the scientific method will allow students to explain evolutionary theory in light of the human fossil record, analyze the relationship between modern humans and non-human primates and objectively evaluate non-Western customs and beliefs. The major is ideal for those who intend a career which obliges a high degree of cultural interaction.
