What is Anthropology? | Definitions, History of Anthropology, and Subfields
Hi there philomaths! In this video, I share all you need to know about the field of Anthropology on a basic level to include clarifying some common misunderstandings and sharing definitions of the general term and subfields. This also gives you insight into my major at UNC Chapel Hill.
One more piece of information for those who are interested in Anthropology as a side study hobby or for a major or minor: the first Ph.D in Anthropology as a major was awarded by the University of Munich to G. Buschan in 1888. In the same year, Franz Boas a widely known anthropologist, went to Clark University and became the first professor in the United States.
