Anthropology At UNT: What Is Applied Anthropology?
applied anthropology is simply anthropology put to use (to quote John Van Willigen). Asyou can see, applied anthropology is not just one kind of job.
http://www.unt.edu/anthropology/applied.htm

Extractions: Anthropology can be used to solve problems in an enormous variety of fields.

The flexibility of their possible career directions means that applied anthropologists often have a creative, entrepreneurial bent.

http://www.iupui.edu/~anthpm/applied.html

Extractions: Course outline Today a Course links The Facts of Life Organization This is a survey course designed to introduce contemporary applied anthropology to anthropology majors or students with interests in anthropological insight. Our departmental focus is on applied anthropology, so the course includes all of our faculty, who will each speak from their own research and experience on a wide range of applied settings, research questions, and perspectives. I will guide weekly discussions and provide some continuity between subjects within the field, and faculty members will each appear at least once and discuss a subject or subjects on which they have conducted research. Grading Your final grade will be based on a series of assignments that examine various facets of applied anthropology and include written analyses, oral presentations, self-reflection, and research. All due dates for assignments are included in this syllabus, and it is your responsibility to remember them. Because there are multiple faculty members involved in the course, it is possible some dates of their presentations may change; we will attempt to minimize such changes, and any date changes will always be revised on the online syllabus and announced in class and on the
Applied Anthropology Essay
applied anthropology Essay. This assignment asks you to articulate whatyou see as the fundamental elements of applied anthropology.
http://www.iupui.edu/~anthpm/appliedessay.html

Extractions: Applied Anthropology Essay As part of this paper, you must discuss how you anticipate using your anthropological training and how this is (or perhaps is not) applied. Be as specific as you can be about how you plan to use anthropological training in the working world: for example, if I was an employer and I asked you why you chose anthropology as an appropriate way to train for the sort of work you're pursuing, what would you say? How would you explain to a prospective employer that anthropology provides distinctive preparation for a wide range of labors? If you are in the course as preparation to simply understand cultural difference and not be an anthropologist per se there's nothing wrong with that, then what is it about anthropology that you believe provides you distinctive skills, training, and insight not common to many of academic disciplines? These are questions people have been wrestling with for a while, so consider looking over one of the many sources that examine the issue of defining applied anthropology. The Applied Anthropology Computer Network site, for instance, has basic information on applied anthropology. Also visit the

http://www.bu.edu/anthrop/ma.html

Extractions: The applied anthropology degree program is designed for non-anthropologists who are already engaged in, or plan to enter, such fields as medicine, public health, education, journalism, law, environmental management, social services to refugee or immigrant populations, rural development, or public policy evaluation. It is designed to provide the student with a basic anthropological training and an appreciation of the significance of a cross-cultural perspective in professional practice. The master's degree is neither required nor encouraged as a stepping stone to the Ph.D. Those persons intending to become professional anthropologists should apply directly to the Ph.D. program. Prerequisites Applicants must have obtained a degree in some discipline other than anthropology and have an expressed intention to continue working in, or enter, that field. Prospective students should also explain in their written statements how they expect anthropology to enhance their capability or improve their effectiveness in their chosen career. This is important because students who enter the program with well-defined goals derive the most benefit from the resources the Department and the University have to offer. Under exceptional circumstances, applications for this program may be considered after the regular application deadline date. The Graduate Record Examination must also be taken by all applicants. Course Requirements Students enrolled in the program must successfully complete a minimum of eight semester courses (32 credits), two of which may be taken outside of the Department of Anthropology. During the first semester, the program coordinator assists students in choosing appropriate courses. By the second semester students must select a major advisor from among the faculty. Students are required to achieve an overall grade point average of 3.0 (B) in their course work. During their last semester students may enroll in a directed study course (GRS AN902) under the guidance of their major advisor and begin developing a topic for the required research paper. While it is possible for a full-time student to fulfill all the program's requirements in two semesters, many students often need an extra semester of residency to fully complete their studies.
