Social Anthropology

Level: : Master

Duration: : 2 years

ECTS Credits: : 120

What is the cultural background for crucial issues such as climate change, financial crises, migration, activism, and sustainability? And how do they influence people's lives?

This Master’s programme offers a distinctive opportunity to study these and other social phenomena through ethnographic research. In one of Europe’s most respected Social Anthropology departments, we promote long ethnographic fieldwork in a familiar or unfamiliar setting, at home or abroad. The Master’s thesis based on your research will make you an expert not only in anthropological thinking but on a unique issue of your interest that will advance your skill sets both academically and professionally.

"The programme finds a good balance between the academic and the applied part of anthropology"

– Sara
