Course summary
The next century is set to be defined by the expanding economies that make up South Asia. Our unique, interdisciplinary degree – combining anthropology, history, geography, and development studies – will equip you with the cutting-edge skills to understand the trends and transformations taking place in this important part of the world, and to analyse its global significance. The MSc in Global South Asia Studies challenges you to question the notion of South Asia as a bounded region and to rethink it as a dynamic space connected to a global circulation of people, capital, technologies, and ideas in diverse ways. Our degree benefits from the university-wide expertise of our active South Asia Studies Research Group (SASRG), which organises a rolling programme of exciting events, film-screenings, visits, and community-engagement activities to which students taking the degree will have full-access.
