Anthropology/Sociology | Bachelor's degree | Humanities & Culture | On Campus | 3 years | Oxford Brookes University | United Kingdom

This is a combined honours course, where you study Anthropology alongside Sociology. Brookes is distinctive among UK universities in teaching biological and social Anthropology in tandem. Biological Anthropology explores our evolutionary History, our response to environmental challenges and our relationship to the other primates, while social Anthropology helps you to appreciate and respect the customs and beliefs of other societies. Brookes is home to the Anthropology Centre for Conservation, Environment and Development, and the Europe-Japan Research Centre, while other resources include the world-renowned Pitt Rivers Museum of Anthropology and World Archaeology just a mile away. An Anthropology society is also led by students. Sociology studies human social life, groups and societies. A wide-ranging subject, it analyses social relationships and social institutions, and the ways in which they shape people's lives. Sociologists focus on many topics, ranging from global social processes to changing identities and personal relationships. Studying Sociology will increase your knowledge and understanding of the social world in the 21st century. Our flexible course allows you to pursue your own areas of interest within the subject.
