Careers in Anthropology?

Traditionally anthropologists have worked for colleges and universities, but this kind of employment now represents a small fraction of professional anthropologists. Today, anthropologists work for federal, state, and local governments, private business and industry. Zoos often hire primate curators with expertise in both wild and captive primate populations. Over half of new anthropologists work for employers such as environmental planning and consulting firms, the Departments of Agriculture and the Interior, and companies such as Xerox. Globalization has highlighted the need to interact with people from many different cultures both in overseas markets and in the United States. When such interaction occurs, the job opportunities for anthropologists increase.
