Previous UTM Anthropology international trips

In Fall 2024, ANT368H5 World Religions and Ecology students explored Oxford and London with Professor Stephen Scharper through themed activities focusing on nature, animals, ecology, and worldviews. Students experienced the historic Oxford University firsthand, with engaging activities, including exploring lush gardens, historic landmarks, and scenic walks that tied into course themes delving into the intersection of religion, worldviews, and ecology in an inspiring setting.
