Course description

The Social Anthropology and Data Analytics programme at The University of Manchester is one of the pathways within the BA Social Sciences degree.

It is ideal if you want to keep your options open or study specific topics such as race, class, crime or religion, from different perspectives.

The six subject areas are:

Criminology - The study of the causes and consequences of crime.

Philosophy - The study of the nature of knowledge, truth and values. It also encourages greater consideration of our reasoning, judgement and ethics.
