[Announcement] Courses offered by the Anthropology Department in 2017 Spring Semester

The 2017 Spring Semester will start soon! Our department will be offering nearly 20 courses with diverse topics related to cultures and anthropology. Major and non-major students are welcome to take or sit in on the classes!

------Message To Anthropology Majors------

A number of required courses for Anthropology majors and courses that will be counted as "Ethnography and Area Studies" are offered. Since some of these courses may not be offered every year, students (especially those who are in the final year of study) should plan carefully and make sure that you can graduate on time.

[Announcement] New Minor Program Offered—Minor in Archaeology

Apart from the Minor in Cultural Heritage Studies program, our department now has a new minor program that Anthropology majors can take! The Minor in Archaeology program, coordinated by the Department of Anthropology, provides students an option to develop an integrated focus on archaeology by bringing together various perspectives including anthropology, culture management, fine arts, geography and geology, and history. Students will learn about the preservation and management of archaeological sites and excavated objects, and relevant data such as in art and historical studies. 

While there is growing awareness about the significance of archaeological discoveries in Hong Kong and the rest of East Asia, systematic training is lacking locally. This minor programme is the first and only programme in Hong Kong that teaches students basic skills in archaeological excavation and research, as well as knowledge in the appreciation, curation, and exhibition of archaeological materials. The programme will connect students with Archaeology programmes in Mainland China and overseas, to expand their perspectives beyond Hong Kong.

In light of increasing admission figures to archaeological exhibitions, students will find themselves equipped for culture-related careers, especially in archaeological excavations, museums, education, and cultural tourism.
