Anthropology School: Mount Allison University Faculty: Faculty of Arts Degree: Bachelor Field of Study: Anthropology Description: The Anthropology Department offers a Minor, a Major and an Honours program in anthropology. A distinctive feature of the Mount Allison program is a series of world ethnography courses which provide regional overviews. Courses include the study of theory, method and areas such as social inequality, belief, folklore, family and kinship, health and culture. This creates the lens through which anthropologist view the world. Anthropology also complements other scientific and liberal arts courses by helping students understand the inter-connectivity of knowledge about people and their cultures. Inter-disciplinary study enables students to understand issues that will affect the future and the information that will be needed to thrive in the global world. Students participate in enrichment activities such as a field trip to a Gurdwara -- Sikh temple, a cultural exchange organized in partnership with an Aboriginal community, a workshop at an Aboriginal Healing Lodge, and a Henna workshop. The department also offers fieldwork opportunities through faculty initiated summer research projects.
