What should my next steps be to gain a career path in Human Trafficking Prevention?
Hi, I am currently undertaking an undergraduate in Anthropology and International Development in England and have gained a deep passion for human traffic prevention. I am trying to figure out the right next steps in order to be useful in this field and become more desirable to companies. I am considering a master's in International Human Rights Law, however, this being a LLM, I'm not entirely sure if this is useful considering I am not a law student. Any advice here? I am also considering the internship route, which will help me gain physical experience. I have a desire to work with victims who have recently escaped trafficking, however, is this possible without a social work/care degree? I am the first in my family to study here and would love any advice to get me closer to this field. Thanks :)
How should I decide what career path to follow?
There are multiple different things I want to study, but they’re all different from each other and I wont be able to use them all in whatever career I choose. How should I choose which one to study?
What are some possible career paths that I could take?
I am currently majoring in Anthropology (with a focus in biological anthropology) and in Mathematics. I like both subjects, but I’m more interested in anthropology. I’m trying to figure out career paths that could possibly combine these two. I also have an interest in forensic anthropology. I’m just not sure what to do with my life career wise so if anyone could give some advice that would be great.
How do I present my discoveries as an independent researcher?
I am very neurodiverse. My discoveries are major importance type but my ability to get anyone to agree to even consider meeting me or physically inspecting my claim is impossible. So how do I get to meet a professional who is willing to look at the evidence in person? Photo submissions don't work.
what different job occupations would I be able to get if I were to have a bachelors in Anthropology?
I’m trying to broaden my options but always let down by peoples answers of it’s a lousy major or just careers with a masters/phd and not much as entry level jobs. I’m way into my major to opt out now as I’m a lower junior in college rn. edit: thank you for the responses!
What are the pros and cons of forensic science and forensic anthropology?
Recently I've been running back and forth between forensic anthropology and forensic science. I understand the two are similar but I think that's why I'm having an issue deciding in the first place! I want to be able to compare the two to get a solid idea of what I may be working with in the future.
Is forensic anthropology the right major for me?
Hi! I've always loved forensics and once I found forensic anthropology it seemed like a good route for me. After doing some more research I realized it requires some math skills, math is not one of my strong suits so I'm doubting my choice. What is it like to actually work with anthropology? For someone who struggles with math, would this be the right choice for me? Should I pick another major? These are questions that have been running through my head.

How to become an Anthropologist
I have an extreme love of learning about different cultures, histories, religions, beliefs, and people. Mythology has also been something that I have enjoyed studying in my past time and I think Anthropology is a fit for me since I want to travel the world and learn as much as I can about different people and how they think. #travel #history #college #anthropology
