About the course

For more than 50 years, Anthropology at Sussex has been at the forefront of anthropology's engagement with real-world problems. Anthropology gives you an in-depth understanding of global cultures and societies, helping you to grasp your place in the world, so you can make a difference. You’ll learn from experts who influence debate on topics such as gender relations, migration, economic and political inequality, religion, health and reproduction. Combining anthropology and international development helps you understand how development interventions affect communities across the world. You’ll also explore the impact of economic growth on social and cultural change.
