Master of Arts in Human Biology, Ecology, and Evolution - Global Engagement

We live our lives in an increasingly interconnected global world. People, goods, and ideas travel like never before, binding local communities and global forces in new and dynamic relationships. The impact of globalization extends to every corner of the earth, and yet its experience is endlessly different. Everything is changing. And yet, globalization itself is nothing new. Humanity has been global for millennia. Our history is a ceaseless process of movement and exchange. From the spread of the earliest domesticated grains from Southwest Asia to the circulation of smart phones assembled in factories throughout East Asia. From goods carried in caravans along the Silk Road to commodities traded electronically across markets in Chicago, Shanghai and Johannesburg. From groups of farmers pledged to mutual assistance in rural Japanese villages to highly sophisticated networks of NGOs, governmental bureaucracies, corporations and individual volunteers committed to disaster relief across the globe. Societies have long developed with and against knowledge, values and technologies drawn from around the world. Contemporary patterns of health and illness, faith and religion, art and language, wealth and poverty emerge from global connections that are both ancient and continually remade. For decades, Anthropologists have worked to make sense of these patterns.
