Field Schools

The Department of Sociology & Anthropology at Thompson Rivers
University invites applications for two field schools in the 2009
spring/summer session:


FIELD SCHOOL IN EAST-CENTRAL EUROPE (Anthropology/Sociology 403)

This popular course is once again open to advanced undergraduate
students from across Canada. The focus of the program is on cultural
and political factors underlying internal divisions within post -
communist Europe. Participants will explore this topic in the Czech
Republic, Slovakia, and Bosnia - Herzegovina. They will visit Romani
settlements, divided cities, towns that have undergone ethnic
cleansing, and former concentration camps. For most students this
opportunity to see the underbelly of Europe becomes a transformative
experience.

FIELD SCHOOL IN GUIMARAS & PANAY (Anthropology 433)

The program takes place in the Western Visayas (Philippines), in
several communities inhabited by the indigenous Ati foragers. It is
designed to expose the participants to the trials and tribulations
associated with hunting and gathering under conditions of uncontrolled
environmental destruction.
