Master of Science (MSc) in Anthropology

The MSc in Anthropology is a two-year degree programme taught in English. The aim is to provide theoretically based higher education with thematic and regional specialisation as well as experience in research methodology.

The Department of Anthropology offers both a general Master’s degree in Anthropology as well as two specialisation tracks: Specialisation in Business & Organisational Anthropology and specialisation in Anthropology of Health. These specialisation tracks are an opportunity to have an even more targeted profile for your degree programme and your Master´s diploma. The two tracks lie within the structure of the general MSc.
