I get many email requests from students, and you're all asking the same things.

  • "How can I write about anthropology for a general audience?"
    Yes, you can-see this section for help with ideas, and references.

  • "Can you major in "Media Anthropology"?"
    There's no degree program (that I know of) - but you might be able to fashion your own degree by taking communications courses along with anthropology.

  • "Can I do something with a journalism and anthropology degree?"
    Try science writing-and check the National Association of Science Writers to get started. Science writers work in all media, and in many types of organizations, and most have science degrees.

  • "And can I do anything besides teach with my anthropology degree?"

    Applied Anthropologists work in the private sector-and there are lots of resources to get you started in this field.
