Description

This honors course sequence in anthropology is designed for undergraduate anthropology majors who have applied for senior honors in the Department of Anthropology. This course is divided into two parts. In the Fall Term, the students will meet once a week in seminar to read and discuss a selection of significant monographs and papers in cultural, biological, archaeological and linguistic anthropology and a selection of writings on research methods and strategies in these fields. This seminar provides background for the students to define their own senior honors thesis project. By the end of the term, the students will have decided on a project and begun preliminary work on it. In consultation with the honors advisor the student may request any member of the Anthropology Department to serve as a main thesis advisor or second reader. In the Winter Term, the students will convene periodically in seminar with the honors advisor to discuss their research projects and get feedback from the group, as well as staying in contact with the honors advisor and second reader. By the end of the term, each student should have completed the research and write-up for their thesis so that they can make a formal summary presentation of it for the group.
