Sociology and anthropology are two social sciences that seek to understand the relationship between individuals and the social worlds they create and inhabit. Sociologists and anthropologists investigate how societies are organized, how cultures are reproduced, and how these processes shape individual identities.

The Bachelor of Arts (BA) is Otago's most flexible undergraduate degree Program, enabling students to study from a selection of more than 40 arts and social science subjects, as well as papers offered elsewhere in the University.

Anthropology studies the diversity of human life in every part of the world. Long-term ethnographic fieldwork is the hallmark of the anthropological approach to studying the human condition and allows you to see how your world fits into a larger context. Contemporary anthropology examines the material, social, and cultural conditions of human behaviour and life from a “locally global” perspective. Anthropology will expose you to a variety of different cultures. At the same time, you will learn to examine your own life from an anthropological perspective. You will learn how to explore and understand radically different contexts in both your own and other cultures.

The anthropology major provides students with an understanding of the cultural and biological variation of past and present human groups. In particular, anthropology examines the cultures and societies people create, how language influences your worldview, evidence of the human past in the archaeological record, human biological evolution, and the interaction of biology and culture in shaping our health and medical practices across the globe.

Students must complete five courses in the Anthropology Studies Honours program. One of these courses is an independent research paper carried out under the supervision of an academic in the Department.
