Anthropology is a diverse field of study that will provide you with unique insights into the differences in human behaviour from a cross-cultural perspective. You'll learn about the beliefs and attitudes of societies all over the world and will study themes such as ethnicity and nationalism, anthropological approaches to religion, colonialism, society, nature and morality. Year 1 compulsory courses: Getting Started at the University of Aberdeen, Introduction to Anthropology: Peoples of the World, Introduction to Anthropology: Questions of Diversity and Academic Writing for Social Sciences.
The critical thinking and analysis skills that you develop from studying Anthropology at Aberdeen will enable you to work with people in a variety of cultural contexts. Many of our graduates now work in research, teaching, media and politics for private and public sector organisations.
