Anthropology in the Open Market: Course Selection and Content in the Absence of Program and General Education Requirements.

Brown, Meredith L.

Urban Anthropology and Studies of Cultural Systems and World Economic Development, v18 n1 p77-84 Spr 1989

Discusses the curriculum objectives, typical student, and degree programs of Empire State College. Nontraditional course selection is possible since each student designs his/her own degree program and completes it through independent study. Programs of these non-traditional students have professional content, but the anthropological content is not of strictly applied nature. (Author/JS)
