Anthropology is the study of humanity in all its diversity, from human behaviour and biology to our cultures, societies and language, both past and present. This one-year Anthropology MRes programme will give you a practical, methodological, and theoretical grounding in a wide range of social science and biological methods and approaches to understanding human beings, societies, and cultures, preparing you for doctoral research or professional practice.
A minimum of an upper second-class Bachelor's degree in a relevant discipline from a UK university or an overseas qualification of an equivalent standard. Applicants are usually expected to have an academic background in anthropology or a cognate discipline, either at the undergraduate or taught postgraduate level. Applicants should have a well-formed idea for a research project in advance, and are encouraged to contact proposed supervisors prior to applying to secure support for their application. The programme tutor can support applicants in recommending potential supervisors in the department.
