Anthropology

Overview

An anthropology class is an excellent choice if you have wide-ranging interests spanning the sciences, arts, and humanities.

Humans speak approximately 7,000 languages, dress in untold ways, eat various foods, practice many religions, and live uniquely. Anthropology, the study of human diversity, helps us make sense of all that diversity. In an anthropology class, you learn how to compare and understand our differences in light of our similarities. You can explore art, religion, history, language, biology, music, fashion, dance, and drama--all within the context of anthropology. ECC offers Cultural Anthropology, Archeology Lab Methods, Prehistoric Archeology, Human Evolution, and more.
