On the one hand, it aims to introduce anthropological research methods, and on the other, to bring students closer to the Galician socio-cultural reality, so that they learn to have a critical vision through a social research methodology. Ethnographic contact with the Galician social reality are two other objectives pursued through the teaching of the methodology.
3.3. humanists
3.3.1. One of the objectives that the teaching of anthropology should always have is the identification of citizens with their own culture, valuing its importance for life and for the socio-cultural progress of peoples.

Thus, two other humanistic goals of the anthropology taught by the academy should be to learn to appreciate the moral richness of other cultures and the values that contribute to the progress of humanity.
