Course Description

This course is designed to give anthropology students the opportunity to engage comprehensive, critical, interdisciplinary, and ethical reasoning about individual, social, and civic issues. A primary objective of this course is to provide students with an understanding of some of the salient ethical issues facing individuals living and working at the intersection of diverse cultures. By working through ethical dilemmas students will learn to identify various stakeholders in cross-cultural collaboration and scientific research to assess those stakeholders' values and interests from an anthropological perspective. Drawing on anthropological insights and a variety of ethical and religious frameworks, students will learn to productively engage ethical issues and articulate their own critically informed, justified opinion on them.
