Evaluation
Progress toward completion of the minor will be monitored in two ways. First, you must have a C or better in any course to be applied to the minor. Second, students are required to demonstrate knowledge of concepts and methodology through successful completion of a capstone field experience course (A495, 1 cr) in conjunction with the final course of the anthropology sequence. The field experience will normally accompany a 300/400 level course. Any exceptions must be approved by the minor advisor. The field experience will culminate in a student paper or presentation which will be graded by the instructor of that course. The anthropology minor will not be complete until all courses are taken and meet the above criteria and students have submitted a satisfactory paper or presentation for A495.
