Anthropology at University of Roehampton, London

      




Overview

Anthropology is the study of the cultural and biological diversity of humans. At Roehampton, you’ll study the classic hemes of both social anthropology (such as kinship, witchcraft, cannibalism and indigenous cosmologies) and biological anthropology (including human ecology and adaption, primate biology and behavior, and human evolution).

We also cover topics such as the relationship between culture and biology, gender and performance, globalization and tourism, political/historical ecology, medical anthropology, the anthropology of science, and the study of human-animal relations.

You’ll enjoy a dynamic learning experience, and be taught by staff engaged in world-class research. Learning more about everything from violence, sexuality and wildlife conservation, to global health and mental illness, you’ll work with anthropologists specializing in these topics.

We offer some of the most innovative modules in the UK. In ‘The Anthropology of Tourism’, for example, you’ll get to study tourists, and their motivations and influences, through an inspiring mix of field trips, films, lectures and discussion. We also run an exciting ’Hunter Gatherers and Human Evolution’ module, where you can get a deep insight into how hunters and gatherers evolved, looking at their diet, foraging practices, technology, residences, mobility, reproduction, cooperation and social organisation.

In your first year, you’ll experience the benefits of ‘team-teaching’, with modules co-delivered by both social and biological anthropologists, and will explore concepts and case-studies from complementary and opposing viewpoints. In year two, through practical classes and lecturers, you’ll build your knowledge of social and biological anthropology, including primate biology, evolution and animal behavior. In your final year you’ll focus on the areas that most interest you, studying topics such as human diversity, HIV/ AIDS and global health, and the anthropology of life and death.
