Studying Social and Cultural Anthropology at Universität Hamburg
Approximately 40 students study Social and Cultural Anthropology as a major in the BA program. There are approximately 15 students in the MA program, resulting in an excellent student/teacher ratio. Thus, students quickly acclimate to daily life in our institute and generally enjoy good relationships with faculty. Students also get to know each other quickly. On the following pages you will find detailed information about the degree programs. We also provide documents and information regarding the organization of your studies.
As an introduction, we recommend the following podcast of the lecture "Why study anthropology? About the science of the diversity of human cultures" in German by Prof. Dr. Kokot (24 June 2008 at the Institute of Social and Cultural Anthropology in Hamburg).
