Those are the questions that Anthropology may help answer. Anthropology is a multi-disciplinary field that transcends time by exploring humankind from its beginnings all the way to modern day society. Reflecting today’s interconnected world, those that study anthropology gain insights into various cultural values, beliefs, and practices all around the world.  \nA background in anthropology opens the doors to many possibilities including careers related to anthropology but also, within sectors such as the government, health, and private sector careers. Some graduates may hope to further pursue graduate studies such as a masters or doctoral in anthropology or related fields such as archaeology to conduct research as an anthropologist or archaeologist in the field. Other graduates on the other hand, may head into the workplace or pursue post-graduate diplomas to work in certain areas such as the museum.  \nAnthropology provides students the opportunity to build an unusually broad skill-set that is easily transferable into the work-world and into many graduate study fields: qualitative and quantitative methodologies, cultural awareness, critical thinking, and problem solving. More importantly, a background in anthropology helps build a toolset for students to examine and work to tackle human problems by examining the past to support and shape the future. 1  \nCareer Profiles  \nAnthropologist  \nJob Description  \nEver wanted the ability to travel through time?
