About

Students develop an advanced knowledge and understanding of topics in one of the four sub-disciplines of anthropology (biological, social, medical, or material culture). They are prepared for advanced-level research through a general training in social science or biological research methods and specialised research training in broad-based anthropological research methods and techniques.

Who this course is for

This research-based Master's degree is suitable for those students entering postgraduate study with a strong background in the discipline, gained either through an undergraduate degree, or through a well-regarded conversion Master's programme.

What this course will give you

The department was the first in the UK to integrate biological, social, medical and material culture into a broad-based conception of the discipline. It is one of the largest anthropology departments in the UK in terms of both staff and research student numbers, offering an exceptional breadth of expertise.
