ANTHROPOLOGY STUDY PROGRAM (march 2005) Page: 2

1. Introduction

a) Reasons for the making of the study

According to tradition of European universities anthropology belongs to natural and social sciences and humanities alike. Accordingly the study was organized at the Faculty of philosophy in the form of an under graduate study under the wing of humanities while the post graduate study was organized partially on the Natural science faculty at the department of Biology under the branch of biological anthropology, and partially at the Faculty of Philosophy in the field of Cultural Anthropology as a part of the postgraduate study ethnology and cultural anthropology. The nature of anthropology is holistic, as well as the growing complexity in the culture-biology relation (cultural consequences of molecular biology and bio-technology) are the main reasons for making the study of Anthropology as a self sustained holistic discipline.

b) Current proposal experiences in making similar or equivalent programs

Anthropology as a holistic science which envelops branches and disciplines which share the man as an object of their study, was available for enrollment for the first time as an undergraduate study in the year 2000/2001 in Croatia.To make the study possible a Chair of Anthropology was formed on the 9-th of December year 1998 on the Faculty of Philosophy in Zagreb.

. By bringing the Science and Higher Education Act (Narodne novine no.123 from 31.07.2003.) together with the urging need for coordination of the curriculum with the Bologna declaration (3+2+3 systems), serious changes in organization of study had to be done. The major change was in reorganizing the undergraduate study in Anthropology, at the Faculty of Philosophy, according to a new 3+2 system, and adding the postgraduate (doctoral) study in Anthropology. Students can enroll in the postgraduate study after successfully completing undergraduate and graduate studies. The duration of the postgraduate study is three years by the end of which student attain the doctoral degree. According to the above stated, and the need for Anthropology to be immanent at the highest level of education, as it is the case in European universities, we propose a reorganized program study in Anthropology which is fully compatible with the 3+2+2 system. This program is a product of the joint work of the members of the Chair of Anthropology of the Faculty of Philosophy i.e. employees of the Institute for Anthropology and Faculty of Philosophy.

Based on to the former experience in conducting a postgraduate study at a

master's level (field: Biology; branch: Biological anthropology), and according to the objective abilities of undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate study at the University of Zagreb (at the Faculty of Philosophy) we think that we can offer serious and high-quality program of study. The program is fully compatible with Bologna declaration and offered on three levels: undergraduate study in Anthropology, graduate study in Anthropology and postgraduate study in Anthropology.


Our proposal of the study was made according to the requirements of the Bologna declaration, oriented towards contemporary anthropology and fully compatible with other Anthropology studies across Europe.

c) Possible partners outside the school system

The professional profile of a graduated anthropologist enables him a vital role in any research project in which a society-science-technology relation is being researched, as well as on any institute that regulates human – environment relations. Furthermore the anthropology has a vital role in researching of cultural processes, ecological processes and the research of public opinion as well as in various expert teams working joined with various Ministries, other government institutions and various agencies dealing in specific social, cultural and human environment issues. We must note that one of the most recent fields where anthropologists have been very active is tied closely to intense educational science development, and widening the educational process to a life long process. This of course brings new issues demanding scientific, expert monitoring and anthropology is specialized in making experts in that field.

Research, science and lecturing cooperation is available with these partners (outside the school system): scientific institutes and various professional organizations relating faculties and departments national and international alike.

d) Study support for student mobility

As there is no discipline where its object study would b adequately analyzed without aspects of anthropology it is clear that an under graduate study of anthropology is desirable for study progress in various fields, (especially humanist and biotechnology sciences). That is the main reason why in this program many lectures are proposed which are interdisciplinary in their nature and therefore available to students of almost all faculties and departments. We must keep in mind that anthropological aspects have held their place in a very large number of study programs, not only socially – humanistic but biological, technical, medicinal and various other sciences.

Accordingly we expect the subjects and courses we are proposing to be enrolled by students of other study groups as well as students of anthropology. We are expecting our own under graduate students to be expertise in various other study groups and studies.

Let us note that our courses are available to students of various fields and profiles. Respecting the principle of mobility we are proposing a program which will enable our students to choose and interdisciplinary connect contents of various fields, as we expect students of other fields will choose a variety of classes we offer as elective.

finish it obtain the title of “magistra/magistar of humane sciences, in anthropology”.

b) Goals of the graduate study of anthropology:

The main goal of the graduate study is to make its participants master the

knowledge from the field of anthropology. Magistrates of anthropology become

competent in radio, TV, journalists, writers, editors and public relations specialists in all

the fields of public activities where their attained anthropology related knowledge could

be put to use. According to the understanding of sociocultural and biological factors of

human society graduated students become capable of performing any sort of educational,

science, government and economy branches dealing in biological and sociocultural

aspects of human action.

1. Subject: ARCHITECTURAL ANTHROPOLOGY

2. Course name: GENERAL ARCHITECTURAL ANTHROPOLO GY

3. Lecturer, collaborators: Sc.dr. Igor Toš, architect

4. ECT-credits:. 2


6. Duration: Summer semester (30 hours)

7. Status: compulsory

8. Form of teaching: 1 hour lecture, 1 hour seminar weekly

9. Requirements for admission: enrolment in 8th semester

10. Knowledge testing method: Graded oral reports on the topic chosen for scientific paper: announcement of topic, analysis of the problem and final oral presentation of the covered topic leading to a written seminar work in the form of scientific paper.

11. Framework of the subject: The course introduces the students into interaction, interdependance and co-evolution of man and the anthropogenic material-spatial environment as part of the overall man's environment. The notion of architecture here encompasses the whole range of levels of the artificially created environment from objects for everyday use, through building and city, to integral landscape. The emphasis of the analysis lies on the simultaneous duality of relationships i.e. on the interrelatedness of man as a biological-symbolical being and architecture as physical-symbolical environment. The course also introduces students into the fundamentals of research methodology of interdependance of man and architecture.

9. Requirements: Basic Human Genetics, Molecular Anthropology

10. Examination: written and oral exam


Molecular evolution emerged twenty years ago and since then it has dramatically influenced development of anthropological ideas. By using powerful technology of molecular biology and knowledge about genetic structure of humans, molecular evolution redefined numerous concepts and hypotheses about their origin. Molecular evolution stems to address different issues such as appearance and age of modern humans, the origin of hominids, location of origin of modern humans, routes and time of various migrations, peopling of the world and evolutionary capabilities of modern humans. Molecular evolution uses latest knowledge from different fields such as human genetics, genomics, medical genetics, and proteomics. Basic topics:

• Molecular mechanisms of evolution • Genetic variability – mutation rate and preservation • Natural selection • Genetic distances among different species • Comparative genome analyses between humans and primates • Phylogenetic analyses of species • MHC as a measure of DNA polymorphism • Mitochondria and evolution • Y chromosome in anthropological studies • Variable and repetitive sequences – evolutionary challenge • Linkage disequilibrium and evolution

12. Literature:

13. Aim: enable students to understand the impact of evolutionary processes on biological and social interactions in the development of human kind.

1. Subject title: SOCIOLOGY OF CULTURE

2. Course title: SOCIOLOGY OF CULTURE

3. Teacher: Aleksandar Štulhofer, Ph. D., associate professor

4. ECTS credits: 5


6. Workload hours: Winter semester


8. Modes of Instructions: 2 hours of teaching, 2 hours of seminars weekly

9. Student requirements: Enrolled into the 5th semester

10. Evaluation methods: Seminar works will be graded and a written exam at the end of semester

11. Course content:

A basic task of this course is to introduce the students into the understanding and analysis of structural elements of culture in its broadest meaning. In this regard, artistic elements as a part of culture will not be a subject of interest in this course but – starting from the definition of culture as a system of meanings that regulate social life – to analyze basic elements of culture and their dynamics (questions for example of cultural change). A part of the lectures will be devoted to the contemporary (global) changes especially in the sphere of communication and influence of mass media and their impact on the everyday life. Major topics to be explained in the lecture are: structural and action oriented defining of culture; norms and institutions as basic elements of culture system; evolution of norms and institutions; cultural selection and mimetic; emotions and culture; micro and macro theories of cultural change; a theory of social capital and of a cultural fundamentalism; Inglehart's model of a post-materialist change; theories of globalization; cultural globalization and everyday intimacy. 12.

3. Lecturer, coworkers: Doc. dr.sc. Stašo Forenbaher

4. ECTS credits: 2




8. Modes of Instructions: 1 hour seminar and 1 hour exercises weekly


10. Evaluation methods: Written exam

11. Course content: A specific characteristic of anthropological archaeology is the fact that the object of its study – past human behavior – is beyond reach of direct observation. How do archaeologists construct the dynamic picture of the past from static material remains? Answer to this question is sought through discussions and projects that revolve around a specific problem, a chosen topic, a methodology, a set of techniques, or an area of research. Discussion topics will change from semester to semester. Among other, they will include the following: nature of the archaeological record and interpretation of material culture; techniques of location and analysis of archaeological sites; typology and classification of the elements of material culture; time and chronometric techniques in anthropological archaeology; social archaeology of hunter-gatherer, village and hierarchical societies; reconstruction of past natural environments; reconstruction of past subsistence strategies and diets; archaeology of production (technology); archaeology of contact and exchange; archaeology of dwellings, settlements, and settlement systems; information and style in anthropological archaeology; archaeology of mortuary customs; archaeology of consciousness, art and religion. All participants in discussion seminars are required to read, on a weekly basis, a selection of short papers from professional journals or book chapters. In the course of semester, each student is required to offer two short presentations of the papers that he was assigned to report. Depending on practical possibilities, students will also be assigned projects, which will provide hands-on experience with archaeological materials, in the course of which they will collect and analyze data. At the end of semester, each student is required to hand in a written paper related to the topic of seminary discussions and/or the project
