Course overview

As humans, we each have unique beliefs, rituals, ways of communicating and interpreting the world around us - this is what anthropologists study. They compare what makes people distinct - and alike. There are so many stories out there. As an anthropologist, you can collect and interpret them to advance human knowledge and bridge divides. All while growing your understanding of yourself and your place in society. Our Bachelor of Arts majoring in Anthropology is packed with fascinating insights into what it means to be human. Let curiosity be your guide as you discern patterns, connections and commonalities across different communities. Explore the culture of hip-hop, the formation of self-identity, the effects of violence and the pain of loss. Engage in lively debates with your peers on thought-provoking topics, from religion and sexuality to organ transplantation and demonic possession. Unpack your own cultural beliefs and biases. Learn how to navigate ethical challenges in the field with sensitivity and skill. Develop capabilities in qualitative research methods such as narrative inquiry, participant observation and ethnography. This is where your passion for anthropology will come to life. Engage in experiential learning and build your professional networks through internships. Be guided by a community of seasoned researchers experienced in ethnographic fieldwork. Graduate ready to influence the global anthropology landscape and make an enduring contribution to human knowledge.
