Bachelor of Arts in Anthropology

This four year honours route studies human societies across time and place: cultural anthropology, archaeology, linguistic anthropology and biological anthropology, with research methods, ethnographic fieldwork technique and theory running through every level of the degree.

Cape Breton Island gives the subject an unusually rich living laboratory, with Mi’kmaq communities, Gaelic settlement history, industrial coal and steel heritage and active rural community organisations all within reach of campus, which means fieldwork projects use real sites and real participants rather than case studies from a textbook.
