The Captivating and Curious Careers of Anthropology

- Discovering the bow of a ship underneath the World Trade Center, helping corporations understand how people's identities show up in technology - or a think tank looking at social relationships in the workplace, working with gangs in East LA, a death investigator helping police solve crimes - it seems anthropology is everywhere these days. And that’s no coincidence because anthropologists ARE everywhere these days, studying the biological, cultural, linguistic, and archaeological aspects of what it means to be human. The American Anthropological Association has created a video series to showcase who we are, what we do, and how we add value to society. Join us as we explore the Captivating and Curious Careers of Anthropology.
I’ve been really struggling with picking a major for college and this video was a HUGE help!!! Anthropology is the only thing that really feels right, but i wasn’t sure about the practicality of it. This video was reassuring :))) . It’s nice to know that I can study something that interests me and still be stable financially.
These speakers were amazing!! Really solidified getting my masters in Anthropology
As of now am in my 2nd semester in PhD in Applied Cosmic Anthropology n love it wholeheartedly......
Thanks for making anthropology visible to people inside and outside the profession. Hopefully there will be other video stories among the anthropology associations in non-English speaking countries, too, since the task of making anthropology visible and present in current events and discussion is not a task limited to English speakers! The production values are not Hollywood or over-produced commercial paced and amplified. But then, somebody has to put the focus on the lives and experiences of the featured speakers. I look forward to more vignettes from the pool of satisfying job experiences among people who think and see our times through the wide-angle, macro, and time-lapse lens of anthropology.
Will you be so kind as to reccommend books on anthrolopoly for beginners? I'm considering graduate studies but not sure what exactly I'm interested in. Anthropology, psychology, linguistics, storytelling, research - those are some of the things I'm interested in. Thank you!

I think the world needs anthropologists more than ever. Im considering doing a degree so I can bring it into my work.
I know right, it is so useful on many different fields, but in my country anthropology is not appreciated, i have a bachelor in anthropology and im useless now here :P
@@samoRok93From where are you, and, by 3 years now, have you been able to work as an Anthropologist?
My teacher sent this to the whole class
that teacher is amazing! sending your Guru(teacher) some love from India.
In which college ? Country?
@Goat man Comics nah
@Goat man Comics oh word i hear they have a killer international program
Very interesting video, good insight from the speakers. I would heavily recommend hiring somebody who has a better understanding of audio and video for making these kinds of videos so the sound issues etc. aren't distracting from important messaging
All I have to say is that I wish the audio was mixed and recorded better. I had to watch this for a gen ed. The speakers and everything were great but the audio kept switching sides in my headphones depending on the speaker. They can turn a one sided stereo recording into a mono recording for those and fix the video to have it sound centered again nbd. Otherwise, it was good to watch. I like making documentaries and would love to make one about anthropologists sometime!
yeah same
If you haven't read James Diego Vigil's book, "From Indians to Chicanos" you might want to check it out! It's amazing!
Can you give me a quick summary of it?
@@Lee935 since they didn't reply id try googling it :) best of luck!
@@Lee935 just saw this! The book by Vigil is a landmark of what sociologists call "ethnohistory" or the history of an ethnicity (Chicanos) in the United States. It's clear, concise, easy to read, and brilliant. Perfect for anyone who is seeking to know more about California Anthropologists!
Great video from a great organization!
Nice video!
I have a degree in funeral service/mortuary science and am pursuing a degree in biological anthropology starting next semester. The forensic anthropology segment was extremely helpful and sounds like something I’d love to do.
So, speaking of which, does anyone know if there are any mortuary archaeology fields or specialties? Archaeology has been a passion of mine for years, and is another thing I’ve been looking into career-wise.
Bioarchaeology
Thank you for the video! Any Medical Anthropologist testimonies?
Something that’s not really touched on in this video that is my moms major concern in me wanting to enter this area. What’re the statistics on finding anthropology jobs with just an Bchelors degree as opposed to needing a masters or PhD?
Hey! I'm a bit late so this may not even be a question you have anymore (and I'm also making an assumption here that you're American so forgive me if I'm wrong). For jobs I've been interested in my worry was that I'll def need a Masters as well but in the states they can be so expensive. My recommendation is if you are getting a masters in anthropology to do it abroad because it is so much cheaper often times for the same quality of education if not better.
Are there transcripts available for this video?
I am 22 years old currently, already got my engineering degree. I want to change my field and become an anthropologist. Is that possible? Will I be allowed by universities to do masters in anthropology ?
i think as long as you meet the prerecs from the masters program. I would look into the college and reach out the the program director. I hope this provides some direction.
If you only have a right headphone, wait until later because one of the interviews only comes out of the left speaker. (At work with headphone so just silence for me)
The few apparently
Im also anthropologist .. Who else? We need to get along.. lol
I´m not but I want to study the career when I finish high school. :)
@@dtown_demon same
@@dtown_demon me too!
The pre-k issue goes beyond brain development. Kids who are in stable homes and go to pre-k are affected negatively. Kids in unstable home s who go to pre-k tend to fare better. This is a mistake of focusing on only one factor.
anthropology the subject of future studies?????
Where my ANTH 205 students at???

인천국제고

Anyone studying from. Ignou india

This video uses propaganda tactics and misuses data to sell Anthropology to prospective majors and the public. If you want to do Anthropology there are lots of majors that Anthropologists claim to be just like but these other degrees are much better sciences to practice, and likely more useful degrees for earning. look into Archeology, Psychometrics, and Behavioral Economics for a more scientifically rigorous degree, or various History degrees for more academic and education oriented degrees.
