I'd always dreamed of engaging the world
in some way.
I never knew how simple that could be with a Master's degree in Anthropology.
Anthropological work explores a lot of issues.
Everything from race to refugees, culture to climate change.
We want to explain the
fascinating complexities of culture:
today and in the past.
My two-year program started with individually-crafted coursework
and one-on-one collaboration with an advisor to create
a path of study built with my personal
interests in mind.
By the way, most of my cohort got great funding
by working as teaching and research assistants.
I spent a summer doing field research on my topic and started building my expertise.
In the end I wrote an original thesis
that showcased my intensive work.
I was so blown away by the fantastic faculty
and the insight that they offered along the way.
They truly helped me create
something amazing.
I developed my passion
with a Master's degree in Anthropology
at Iowa State University.
My next step?
The world.
