In 1985, the American Anthropological Association wrote to anthropology department chairs asking for information of jobs secured by former students The list to the right is just a sample of the variety of jobs held by former anthropology majors. Measured by the list, opportunities available to those currently majoring in anthropology are as all-embracing as anthropology itself.

It is basically the study of man.
They study past civilizations along with indian tribes and animals that live in their times, and how the people lived.
Things like physical anthropology, cultrual anthropology, and archeology would fall under anthropology.
