1 SAS Curriculum Changes Approved at the SAS Faculty, December 14, 2006 Anthropology (070) • Change in Major Existing Anthropology BA becomes one of two BA tracks, with the other being the new Cultural Anthropology. The BS in Evolutionary Anthropology remains as the other option. Proposed Catalog copy revision: The BA track in Anthropology trains students in the discipline’s four traditional subfields: cultural, biological, and linguistic anthropology and archaeology, providing them with a holistic understanding of humans as biological, cultural, and linguistics beings, both in the present and the past. This track is intended for students who seek a comprehensive understanding of human cultural and physical diversity within a broad social, historical, and evolutionary framework. Requirements for Anthropology Track Total number of required credits: 40 credits, of which at least 18 are at the 300 or 400 level. Each of the following is required – 16 credits 01:070:101 Introduction to Cultural Anthropology 01:070:102 Introduction to Human Evolution 01:070:105 Introduction to Archaeology 01:070:108 Introduction to Linguistic Anthropology In addition, one 300- or 400-level course is required in each of anthropology’s sub-fields: cultural, linguistic, biological anthropology, and archaeology. The subdisciplines to which upper division courses belong can be identified by their prerequisites. In the junior or senior year, one 400-level course is required. Honors in Anthropology can be used toward this requirement. Credit may be given for courses in other departments if approved. Proposed Catalog copy for new track: The Cultural Anthropology Track is intended for students interested in current social, cultural, and political issues, especially in understanding the relationship of global processes to new cultural forms and social inequalities. Students learn how cultural theory is integrated with empirical ethnographic research and how to balance in-depth knowledge of particular geographic regions (e.g., Africa, Asia, Latin American, and the United States) with knowledge of worldwide interconnections. Requirements for Cultural Anthropology Track Total number of required credits: 38 credits, of which at least 18 are at the 300 or 400 level. 2 INTRODUCTORY COURSES: both required – 8 credits 01:070:101 Introduction to Cultural Anthropology 01:070:108 Introduction to Linguistic Anthropology ___________________________________________ GEOGRAPHIC AREA COURSES: two courses required – 6 credits 01:070:223 Anthropology of Latin America 01:070:238 Anthropology of Europe 01:070:244 Anthropology of South Asia 01:070:246 Anthropology of Southeast Asia 01:070:248 Anthropology of China 01:070:250 Anthropology of the Contemporary United States 01:070:338 Anthropology of Africa 01:070:379 Gender and Power in Africa 01:070:389 Ethnography of Gender in South Asia _____________________________________________ HISTORY, THEORY, METHODS: one course required - 3 credits 01:070:311 History of Anthropology 01:070:317 Method and Analysis in Cultural Anthropology 01:070:318 Reading Ethnographic Writing 01:070:401 Theories in Cultural Anthropology 01:070:410 Explanation in Anthropology _____________________________________________ ELECTIVE COURSES: 7 courses required - 21 credits 01:070:216 Anthropology and Modern Problems 01:070:220 Food and Culture 01:070:222 Anthropology of Human Sexuality and Eroticism 01:070:223 Anthropology of Latin America 01:070:225 Women in Anthropological Perspective 01:070:238 Anthropology of Europe 01:070:244 Anthropology of South Asia 01:070:246 Anthropology of Southeast Asia 01:070:248 Anthropology of China 01:070:250 Anthropology of the Contemporary United States 01:070:301 Psychological Anthropology 01:070:303 Wealth and Culture 01:070:304 Political Anthropology 01:070:305 Anthropology of Development 01:070:307 Medical Anthropology 01:070:308 Anthropology of Religion 01:070:309 Visual Anthropology 01:070:311 History of Anthropology 01:070:312 Language and Social Diversity 01:070:317 Method and Analysis in Cultural Anthropology 01:070:318 Reading Ethnographic Writing 01:070:319 Anthropology of Human Rights 3 01:070:320 01:070:323 01:070:338 01:070:360 01:070:368 01:070:371 01:070:372 01:070:374 01:070:376 01:070:378 01:070:379 01:070:380 01:070:389 01:070:3XX 01:070:401 01:070:406 01:070:410 01:070:486 Diaspora, Multiculturalism, and Ethnicity in the United States Women Writing Culture Anthropology of Africa Global Families (new name) Anthropology of Mass Media Politics of Culture Anthropology of the Body Localities and Global Systems Power and Difference Anthropology of Gender Gender and Power in Africa Culture, Memory, History Ethnography of Gender in South Asia Cultural Encounters (new course under development) Theories in Cultural Anthropology The Rights & Wrongs of Indigenous Peoples Explanation in Anthropology Gender, Development, and Environment Honors in Anthropology credit, and one approved independent study course, may be used toward the elective requirement.

Proposed Catalog copy revision (changes in bold): The BS degree in evolutionary anthropology is designed for students who plan to go to graduate school in archaeology, biological anthropology, paleoanthropology, geoarchaeology, or other related fields in human evolutionary studies (e.g., skeletal biology, forensic science, primatology). This option prepares students with a multidisciplinary, science-oriented background for careers in the field of evolutionary anthropology. This degree is also useful and desirable for careers in the medical sciences.

Hyndman, Cell Biology & Neuroscience; Ph.D., California (Los Angeles) Daniel Tichenor, Political Science; Ph.D., Brandeis Rutgers University has a rich body of courses that are fundamental to leadership instruction. The minor in organizational leadership gathers these courses into a curriculum that prepares students to assume a leadership role in an organization. Program Goals Students who minor in organizational leadership may pursue any major field of study. For its theoretical segments, the minor draws from the Faculty of Arts and Sciences; from departments in the Rutgers Business School: Undergraduate-New Brunswick; and the School of Communication, Information and Library Studies. For its practical components, the minor utilizes the Office of Career Services and Rutgers student organizations. All aspects of the minor concentrate on cultivating and enhancing organizational leadership skills. The theory courses focus on formulating an ethically responsible vision that promotes organizational excellence: understanding change, how it occurs, when it is needed, and how it affects a group; and persuading individuals and groups to work toward a common goal. Course work is supplemented by a series of extracurricular programs that provide an opportunity for students to meet with their cohorts and to apply their knowledge of organizational leadership. The extracurricular component functions much like a laboratory in the physical sciences. Requirements The minor in organizational leadership consists of 20 credits (9 of which must be at the 300 level or above) divided into two foundation courses, three theory courses, and two applications courses.
