Anthropologists explore people and cultures of the world to understand how they function.
To fully understand and study these cultures, they use knowledge of biological, physical
and social sciences. They then use the data and insights they collected to develop
solutions to human problems.
Harper College's Anthropology Program will broaden your cultural perspective, as well
as help you prepare to transfer to a four-year university for further study.
