Master of Arts in Social Anthropology

Program 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 and sociology, human geography, development studies, history, archaeology, and philosophy.

You will take a broad range of courses in Year 1 and 2, which will give you a good grounding in the study of anthropology. This includes an opportunity to undertake anthropological research.

You will further develop your 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 your own design.

Between Year 3 and 4 you will spend up to four months on an individual research project that will form the basis of your dissertation. Fieldwork for your project can be done both within and outside the UK.
