Overview

Social anthropology is the study of human conduct and thought. Societies around the world vary enormously socially, culturally and politically. The study of these variations, and the common humanity that underlies them, is at the heart of social anthropology.

There are close links between: • Social anthropology

• Sociology • Human geography • Development studies • History • Archaeology • Philosophy

Students will take a broad range of courses in Year 1 and 2, which will give they a good grounding in the study of anthropology, including an opportunity to undertake anthropological research.

Students will further develop their understanding of the subject and research skills in years 3 and 4 by choosing from a variety of advanced optional courses and undertaking a dissertation project of their own design.
