Why study Social Anthropology at Manchester?
Social anthropology is the comparative study of culture, essentially asking what it means to be human. Contemporary anthropology is a critical discipline that tackles a variety of topics.
You could consider questions about how people make families, worship gods and organise their economic and political lives. In short, studying social anthropology changes the way you think: a vital skill in today’s increasingly interconnected and socially and culturally complex world.
