The course explores the scope of methodologies incorporated within contemporary cultural anthropology. Students will engage in examining epistemological perspectives in the practice of anthropology and work towards acquiring skills for conducting and carrying out various stages of ethnographic fieldwork, from research design, methods of data collection to developing tools of interpretive analysis and presenting their findings across different audiences, within and outside academia. The course will further engage students to contemplate theoretical and ethical frameworks for conceptualizing the value and relevance of anthropological knowledge and methodologies in an increasingly interconnected global society.
