This one-year course offers a coordinated learning programme in both social and biological anthropological approaches to health and illness. It provides the necessary basis for future anthropological research and an excellent cross-cultural grounding for those aiming to pursue a career in anthropology, global health or other health-related fields. The dissertation is an independent piece of work written after the June examinations. Dissertation classes are held over the first four weeks of Trinity term for two hours per week, during which you will be able to present ideas for your dissertation project to colleagues and staff, and a maximum of two individual supervisors. Many graduates enter teaching and research, though this often requires a doctorate. There is some recruitment to public bodies, the larger private companies, development agencies, NGOs etc.
