Anthropology is the study of the origin, development, and behavior of humans. Anthropologists often specialize in the study of people--culture, way of life, and language. This science investigates and reveals facts about past cultures by examining evidence from excavation sites.

Earning your college degree in anthropology can qualify you for various careers, such as:

• Museum Curator. Researches, preserves, and manages displays in museums
• Crime Lab Investigator. Performs forensic investigations of crime scene remains
• Business Anthropologist. Manages business or corporate employee relations, human resource departments, or cultural trainers for international business markets
