The MA Program is part of the CREOLE network: our students participate in short and long exchanges with partner institutions and in the 5-day summer intensive program for participants from Institutes and Departments of Anthropology in Maynooth, Ireland; Vienna, Austria; Lyon, France; Bern, Switzerland; Ljubljana, Slovenia; and Barcelona, Spain.
It has a strong focus on changes that take place in contemporary societies around the world, and it is research oriented. Our students learn about contemporary theories in anthropology; how to independently conduct ethnographic research; critically reflect on the pending issues of our time; and intervene in them through public engagement.
The program will prepare students for doctoral studies as well as careers in public policy, civil society and community organizing, journalism and visual media, public administration, social work, and education. Getting a master’s degree in Anthropology will equip students with knowledge and practical skills to deal with the challenges and to embrace the opportunities of todays’ changing societies.
