Anthropology with Social Studies (Hons) University of Malta

Overview

During your Anthropology with Social Studies (Hons) course of studies offered by University of Malta, you will learn about the social, cultural, biological and linguistic aspects that comprise anthropology. Your knowledge on these areas may also culminate into a research-based dissertation that you will carry out in your final year of your programme of study. 

By studying about the origin and contemporary standing of anthropology, you will be provided with a wide spectrum of facets that will contribute to a more holistic understanding, ranging from evolution and society, to psychoanalysis, migration and post-colonialism, to name a few. They will also encourage you to participate in the Erasmus+ mobility programme, as they believe that an international and multi-cultural experience will provide you with a more holistic learning outcome.

Applicants wishing to join the part-time mode must submit their application as full-time, and then include a note in the comments box of the application form, denoting their preference to be considered for the part-time option. Such requests will be considered by the Board of the Faculty.

Careers

This programme of study will prepare you for a wide range of anthropology related careers, both locally and abroad. 

These include working at museums, non-profit and community-based organisations, international development, organizational psychology, governmental work and marketing. 

If you are more inclined towards an academic career, they encourage you to further your studies by pursuing a post-graduate programme that the University offers, as a number of alumni have done so.
