| Description | The Master of Arts (M.A.) in Social and Cultural Anthropology provides general training in the social and cultural organization of human societies. Graduates gain interdisciplinary skills to work effectively as consultants, mediators in multicultural contexts, or to pursue further studies in anthropology at the doctoral level.
The M.A. program has four objectives: to sensitize students to their ethical responsibilities as anthropologists; to provide students with opportunities to conduct fieldwork; to help students develop a critical understanding of anthropological theory; and to encourage experimentation with the medium, form and style of ethnographic presentation. | | |
