Description

Ever wondered how cultural anthropology helps us make sense of the world—and our place in it? In this episode of the CSUSB Advising Podcast, hosts Matt Markin and Aurora Shiva Prasad sit down with Dr. Hareem Khan, Associate Professor of Anthropology, to explore the fascinating world of cultural anthropology.

From her own winding journey through college majors to her discovery of anthropology as a powerful tool for asking big questions, Dr. Khan shares insights on meaning-making, relationships, and why anthropology is much more than “just learning about other cultures.” She also tackles common misconceptions, highlights exciting career paths for anthropology majors, and points students to courses and clubs that bring the discipline to life.

✨ If you’ve ever asked, “Where do I fit in the world?” this episode might just give you a new lens to see the answer.
