Anthropology

Find your place in an ever-changing world. Delve into the history of our species and explore the amazing diversity of human cultures.

Anthropology is a blend of the sciences and the humanities, providing graduates of this course with the objective reasoning of the scientific method, as well as a deep understanding of how to communicate with other people around the world.

Examine how we evolved, why we live in different societies, and how we interact with one another and the environment. You’ll develop insight into social and cultural difference, understand the history, behaviour, and evolution of our species and gain a unique perspective invaluable to employers across a wide range of industries.

Get practical with our brand new micro CT-scanner within the Imaging Centre for Life Sciences, the Ethnobiology Laboratory for identification of useful plants, and the Charles Darwin Lab with its impressive fossil cast collection. Field trips present another opportunity for you to learn beyond your lectures at zoos, museums, religious sites, and the financial district.
