Science Corps Anthropology Department



Science Corps Anthropology Department (SCAD) is a department of the United Stars Science Corps (under the direct auspice of the United Stars Science Council )

Few other fields of study have increased in scope and importance than Cultural anthropology and social anthropology since humanity ascended to the galactic stage. It has however virtually exploded in scope after the founding of the United Stars of the Galaxies. Every sentient society encountered has developed a complex civilization with countless rules, taboos, social interactions and reactions. To catalog, study and make sense of it all is an enormous task. Part of the SCAD goals are to find common cores and develop society rules that can be applied to everyone. Of course SCAD is part of the PUMA process and is involved in First Contact situations or to evaluate newly discovered sentient life.

What seemed to be an impossible task or goal, SCAD has developed into one of the most respected authorities in the known universe.
