Course description

The Master's programme in Social and Cultural Anthropology, as a one-subject Master’s programme provides in-depth research-oriented training in a cultural and social science that deals with human culture in general and individual cultures in particular on an empirical basis. The traditional focus of the discipline of Social and Cultural Anthropology is on rural non-European cultures and societies. These are still the focus of attention today, but in recent decades urban and industrial societies have increasingly come into view, and one’s own society has also become an important topic. Reade more about the Master's programme on the department's homepage.
