This is a four-year degree. If you successfully achieve the progression requirements of the Foundation Year, you can continue with the full-time three-year BA (Hons) Anthropology degree.

All you need is an interest in anthropology – there aren’t any formal entry requirements.

You’ll learn about the key issues and themes and problems that have shaped contemporary anthropological thought.

You’ll study a diverse range of human societies and cultures to acquire an understanding of the importance of anthropology to contemporary global issues. In this respect, you’ll explore relevant political, economic and social anthropological themes (including social justice global inequalities human rights the environment and sustainability race and ethnicity sex, sexuality and gender capitalism and consumption peace and violence nation, place and migration) with a focus on the kinds of inclusive, socially aware, politically engaged, and decolonial practice that epitomises anthropology at Goldsmiths.
