Course summary
Our world faces immense challenges: from conflict and poverty to wildlife conservation. We need people with skills to respond. Anthropology with a Foundation Year starts with learning essential skills to prepare you for degree-level study. Passing this foundation year leads to our Anthropology BA/BSc which covers both social and biological aspects of this fascinating discipline. You will explore our origins, our interactions with nature and contemporary human relations. Through field trips, work-based learning, lectures and seminars – led by world-class published academics – you’ll gain highly employable skills. A cross-cultural focus will take you into case studies – drawn from the research of your lecturers – in places like Japan, Indonesia, Sierra Leone, India, Madagascar, South Africa and Spain. There are opportunities to study abroad and many extra-curricular activities. You'll build your own degree or select one of our exciting pathways focused on social, biological or combined aspects of anthropology:
- Human Origins,
- International Development & Conservation
- Human Cultures.
