What can you do with a degree in anthropology?
Quite a lot, it turns out. We examined the LinkedIn profiles of more than 200 alumni from our undergraduate programs and found that most are building careers not necessarily in anthropology, but with anthropology, applying their skills across business, healthcare, education, technology, government, and more. The paper Careers with(in) Anthropology: Lessons from LinkedIn Profiles of Alumni was published in Practicing Anthropology.
