Course summary
Our BA Anthropology and Law brings together two different, but complementary fields 鈥� with an equal focus on both areas.
Through anthropology, youll explore how our lives are shaped by religious, political and economic systems. Youll engage in debates about social justice, multiculturalism, race, gender and the direction of political and economic change in todays world.
The law components delve into the legal system and the technical procedures needed to practise law.
The programme provides full training in anthropological research methods. Theres also the chance to complete an in-depth ethnographic study, take part in our summer fieldwork placements scheme, and apply for a year abroad with one of our global partners.
Youll be encouraged to critically evaluate topics and see the world from new perspectives 鈥� all within a friendly, supportive, yet academically challenging environment.
