Jottings from the Field - Student Journal of the Anthropology Programme

Jottings from the Field is a student lead journal which showcases the writings of Anthropology students in RTC. The journal is intended to both highlight the research of anthropology students as well as provide an opportunity for interested students to learn the skills needed to run a publication.

As the title suggests, the writings are not intended to be fully polished pieces of work. Nevertheless, we believe that this journal provides an important snapshot of how anthropology is developing in Bhutan, at its only college which offers an undergraduate major in the discipline.
