ANT 225 - CULTURE, ENVIRONMENT AND GLOBAL ISSUES

College of Arts & Sciences

Credit(s): 3

A fundamental part of human experience is interacting with our physical surroundings, but in the globalized ecosystem of our planet, our interactions with the physical world increasingly include distant places rather than just the surroundings we see from our door step. This course aims to develop students’ awareness, knowledge and ability to reflect on how human behavior intersects with global environments. To do so, it applies an anthropological interpretive framework to topics that link human lifestyles, the environment and global issues.

Prereq: Freshmen or sophomore standing ONLY.
