CSU-Pueblo • Student achievement will be assessed in the outcome areas on the basis of a standardized national achievement test. • For the sociology minor, grades will provide a valid measure of student performance. The department will examine and maintain records of grades of students minoring in sociology as one means of assessment. ANTHROPOLOGY The anthropology minor provides students with an informed understanding of the cultural diversity evident in human societies and the concepts by which anthropologists explain cultural dynamics. The program emphasizes a holistic awareness of the relationships of all the parts of social and cultural systems. The program prepares students to understand anthropological methods and theories and to apply them to academic as well as to life experiences. Anthropology Program Goals • Students will be able to deal with intellectual problems and engage in critical thinking in a lucid fashion, reflecting logical inquiry and knowledge of pertinent information. • Students will possess knowledge and experience of cultural and sub-cultural groups other than their own. • Students will achieve an understanding of a spectrum of anthropological sub-divisions and will be knowledgeable in at least two areas. Specific Requirements for the Anthropology Minor The minor consists of 21 semester hours of anthropology courses; ANTHR 100 is required, and six hours must be upper division. The rest of the courses may be based upon the student’s interest. No grades below C are accepted toward the minor. Outcome Assessment Activities • The assessment of anthropology students’ progress is a continuing process from matriculation to graduation. SOCIAL SCIENCE PROGRAM (Offered through Continuing Education only) The interdisciplinary major in social science (offered only through Continuing Education) leads to the degrees of Bachelor of Arts (BA) and Bachelor of Science (BS). Social scientists study people and social institutions, especially the relationships and impacts they have with and on each other. Research in the social sciences provides insights that help in understanding the ways in which individuals and groups make decisions, exercise power or respond to change. Social scientists gather and analyze data, interpret it and make it meaningful and useful for application in dealing with human problems. Employment has traditionally been in the academic area; however, as the economy continually changes from an industrial to a service-oriented system, a greater need for “people-oriented” specialists is developing. Job opportunities in applied fields include areas such as program management and administration, residential counseling, service supervision, human services and sales and related work -- in both the public and private sectors. Related careers are: teaching, social work, corrections/criminology, social and educational administration, law and mass communications. Program Goals • Prepare students to function as knowledgeable and responsible individual citizens in society; • Prepare students for leadership roles within the broader society; • Instill in students a broad understanding of the major disciplinary approaches to the study of social life, including economics, history, sociology, geography, and political science; • Prepare students for participation in modern social institutions, as well as for the coming changes and conflicts within those institutions; • Instill in students an awareness of and appreciation for the cultural and ethnic diversity of modern society. 156
