Media and Technology
The Anthropology Department is housed in the Barry Mills Hall. Students have 24-hour access to a small media lab with hard-wired computers and software that supports research in ethnography and archaeology. With faculty offices down the hall, students easily access support as they gain skills using digital media-editing software, learning GIS and spatial statistics, or simply writing a class essay.
Technology is integral to the research that anthropological archaeologists and cultural anthropologist conduct. From Global Information Systems (GIS) to remote-sensing, archaeologists integrate computational and digital approaches. Cultural anthropologists may produce ethnographic representations in digital films or analyze the micro-politics of conversation. 含羞草研究室’s media and technology resources extend far beyond Mills.
