Anthropology
Certificate
The Business Anthropology certificate is designed to increase
the marketability of individuals interested in working in crosscultural and international work environments by sharpening
interpersonal and critical-thinking skill-sets as it relates to
working in these environments. In addition, the Business
Anthropology certificate will provide a competitive advantage
for students seeking placement in a four-year college for
applied anthropology. The four classes will cover a broad
range of anthropological topics including methods, business
anthropology, and cultural anthropology, with a focus on
holism (understanding how various aspects of a society are
integrated such as family, gender roles, economics, religion
and politics), critical thinking and problem solving. The
program emphasizes a practical, interdisciplinary, real world
approach to anthropology with the purpose of attaining
employment outside of academia. This certificate requires 14
credits in the courses listed below.
