We study humanity in all its aspects: from our evolution as a species, to our relationship with the material/digital world, and our vast variety of social practices and cultural forms. Our department is one of the few in the country that combines Biological Anthropology, Social Anthropology, Material Culture and Medical Anthropology to give you a truly broad-based anthropology degree. The breadth and depth of this interdisciplinary approach is reflected in our teaching and research.
I studied Anthropology at Durham University (UK) late 70s / early 80s. I love following the expansion of knowledge and understanding of evolution and social anthropology I can now find so easily online. . So much of what I learned at University has since been debunked as research has become more sophisticated, especially in the area of DNA. Sadly I still find the subject very male dominated and biased, virtually ignoring the role/ contribution of women in pre history and today.

Are there also options to take modules from other courses, outside of Anthropology? I'm holding an offer for the BSc in Anthropology with a Year Abroad, and I have a great interest in sustainable development, therefore I'd love to know whether I can also take other modules related to this (i.e. development economics, ecology)
