BA Anthropology and History

at University of Birmingham

Social Anthropology is the study of human social and cultural diversity. If you want to understand the past to prepare for your future in a changing world, studying History is the way forward.This undergraduate degree course combines the contemporary, critical, and globally comparative perspective of social anthropology with historical study of modern, early modern and medieval Britain, Europe and the wider world. After a thorough grounding in both disciplines in the first year of your degree, you will be able to follow your interests by choosing from a wide range of optional modules in your second and third years. Your degree will culminate in a final year dissertation in either Social Anthropology or History.
