Anthropology is the comparative study of societies and human diversity. It asks questions about behavior, meaning and value between different societies and cultures. Anthropologists focus on social groups that follow a distinct way of life, such as factory workers, people who live by hunting and gathering in the Amazon, corporate managers, Indigenous Australian artists, Harry Potter fans, and opium growers in South-East Asia, religious groups, migrants and refugees. Although anthropologists work in diverse social contexts, they share a commitment to exploring and understanding different ways of life and cultural perspectives, and illuminating these for others. Students will gain the skills to contribute to policy and interventions, by applying anthropological theories and methods to concrete problems.
