The course "Cultural Anthropology" has been included in the collection of Kazakhstan's MOOCs as part of the Coursera-Qazaqstan project, which is supported by the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

The main goal of the course is to provide a comprehensive understanding of cultural anthropology and to introduce students to the methods and techniques of cultural-anthropological research. The course covers key topics such as economic, political, gender, legal, and military activities, as well as the study of sociocultural phenomena and processes in various societies and cultures.

Participants in the online course will gain knowledge that will help develop analytical and research skills and improve their ability to conduct independent scientific research. The course is an integral part of the system of social and humanitarian disciplines and is closely connected with philosophy, sociology, religious studies, political science, and many other fields of knowledge.

Adding the course to the collection of Kazakhstani MOOCs on Coursera is an important step in the international educational activities of Al–Farabi Kazakh National University.
