Has your son or daughter been acting strangely? Do you keep finding Medical Anthropology Quarterly journals under their bed? Was the only thing on their Christmas list a new Marshalltown trowel? We've got some news for you...

"What are you going to do with a degree in anthropology?" "Be an anthropologist."

I'm currently studying anthropology but I am apprehensive about pursuing this degree due to job security reasons. I watch these videos in order to have an idea of the employment opportunities and also to reassure myself of my decision. I was an anthropologist before I even realized that I wanted to become one. I have always taken interest in understanding 'why' people believe, think or behave a certain way.

I love studying cultural anthropology it's amazing you learn so much about things you've never known, cultures, linguistics , rituals, meanings. Go anthropologist!!!!

@BLucia13 9 жыл бұрын

My family always ask me what is anthropology, because they don't know what I'm studying ... This is great to show them.

I'm so excited our daughter will be studying this. She will be graduating with her AA in May then hopefully starting the online anthropology program with UF right after. I think it is one of the most interesting fields out there :) We are all about following our dreams and to see our kids doing just that is most exciting!

As a fourth year anthropology student at UF right now, I really recommend she not take the online program. Anthropology requires fieldwork and working in person with people! Sitting at home and learning about people/history/fossils ironically makes you the one thing anthropologists are taught not to be - an armchair anthropologist!

I decided I wanted to be an anthropologist when I was 11. I was working on archaeology sites by the time I was 13, and now I am working on my PhD. I still love every moment I spend in the field. My recommendation is that you follow your dreams!

I actually don't say Anthropology when anyone outside the academic world ask what is your profession? They simply don't know, and I simply say Sociology 😂

I would have loved to be Anthropologist but can you find work in this field. There's a lot of people with fancy degrees working outside of their field, many unemployed.
