Anthrozoology is the study of human and animal interactions and relationships. The Carroll College Anthrozoology program is one of the first of its kind and our students enjoy deeply experiential learning with the help of our canine and equine friends.
The Carroll College Anthrozoology Department is celebrating our unique field and unique human-animal bond for the week of Sept 6-11 with programming open to the campus and the public. We hope you will join us.
