Course summary

This MSc provides students with knowledge of advanced medically related anthropology, enabling students to utilise anthropological approaches in a range of research and professional roles. It trains students in theoretical and applied aspects of the field, preparing them for careers that engage with and impact real-world contexts. Students new to anthropology develop an understanding of anthropological approaches to experiences of illness and health, gaining skills required in anthropological field research and analysis. For students with previous social science training, we focus on dimensions particular to medical anthropology (e.g. diversity issues in clinical practice, therapeutic narratives, critical medical anthropology, traditional medical systems, mental health).
