New Course Descriptions:
In this course we explore some of the
critical theoretical, methodological and social issues and questions that the
fields of geography and anthropology have grappled with since their inceptions.
We look at the historical development of the disciplines, raise questions about
how and why they developed as they did, and ask whether the subfields,
perspectives and methods of our fields are the best or only possible models. We
also examine the role that our fields have played in various historical and
contemporary social issues, and their potential contributions to these
problems. This course substitutes for ANT 310 and GEO 310. Permission of
instructor required. Cr: 3
GEO 450: International
Development
A critical examination of
theories and approaches to study development.
Insights from historical and contemporary perspectives help examine the
role of states, international institutions and civil society in the development
process. Examples from countries across
south, southeast Asia, Latin America and others used to demonstrate issues
facing developing countries. Cr: 3
ANT 450: Indigenous Peoples
& Tourism
This course examines the
diverse roles of indigenous peoples in the global tourism industry from an
anthropological perspective. Readings, lectures and videos illustrate how
various indigenous peoples have been affected by tourism development, how some
communities are engaging in this industry directly, and how indigenous peoples
are themselves becoming tourists. Special attention will be paid to the growth
of cultural and ecotourism in the Cree communities of northern Quebec as
preparation for planned field courses to this region. Prerequisite: Junior standing or permission of instructor. Cr: 3
Advising
Good advising is key to a timely degree and helps
you choose courses that both fulfill your requirements and meet your
interests. Faculty advisors in the department have a sense of the
frequency of course offerings and the best sequencing for student
growth. Advisors are assigned once you declare the major of geography-anthropology.
You can choose a faculty member or we can assign an advisor for you.
Please contact Maggie 780-5321 to find out who your advisor is or to change
advisors.
As soon as the
course schedule (tabloid) is available, make an appointment with your advisor. This
is crucial!
