Anthropology is the study of modern humans, their ancestors, and closest relatives (non-human primates). Biological anthropologists study the evolution of humans and other primates and modern human populations. Archaeologists trace the evolution of culture over the past three million years, analyzing ancient environments and modern material culture. Linguistic anthropologists are interested in the relationships between language, culture, society, and the individual.
Architecture is an interdisciplinary field. It requires a comprehensive general education and an understanding of history and culture, physical environments and building technology combined with skill in drawing, design, math, and computer modeling. Architects concern themselves with the structure, materials, function, safety, cost, and environmental impact of their buildings. The scope of their work varies considerably: an architect may design an entire community, a building complex, an individual structure, or the smallest details of interior space.
