| Description | If you are someone who has wondered what does it mean to be human and why do humans behave the way they do, then anthropology is for you.
Anthropologists study humans and non-human primates. Anthropology is both a science and a social science, depending on the area of focus. Anthropologists study all peoples (and primates), in all places, throughout time. The difference between anthropology and other disciplines is the way anthropologists approach their studies: comparatively and holistically. At Selkirk College, the focus is more on the social science side of the discipline. There are seven, first and second-year anthropology courses at Selkirk College to choose from.
