**Why study BA Anthropology at Goldsmiths**<br/>**On this degree youll explore anthropology from fresh, contemporary perspectives.**<br/><br/><br/>- Youll investigate the world of anthropology from a new angle, drawing on interdisciplinary perspectives to approach issues such as the environment, the state, its politics towards refugees and asylum seekers.<br/><br/><br/>- The BA Anthropology degree offers a challenging and contemporary syllabus. Youll explore key anthropological debates and use them to help you understand contemporary societal and cultural issues.<br/><br/><br/>- We offer a fresher approach to the subject than other universities – from the impact of the environmental crisis and austerity economics, to border politics, the state and racism, you’ll learn much more than just ‘traditional’ anthropology. This is one of the reasons we were ranked top 10 in the UK for anthropology in the QS World University Rankings by Subject in 2023.<br/><br/><br/>- In the first two years, you’ll concentrate on contemporary anthropological approaches and concepts, such as kinship, ritual, critical ecologies, and intersectionality. Youll also learn to analyse these concepts using video, film and written texts, and you’ll get to study about different regions of the world in depth.<br/><br/><br/>- Youll also hone your anthropological skills by choosing from a selection of optional modules, tailoring your degree to your own interests, aspirations and future employability.<br/><br/><br/>- Youll explore links between theoretical issues and ethnographic studies, enabling you to think critically about culture and society in Britain, and around the world.<br/><br/><br/>- Our graduates have gone on to work for the UN, World Bank, NGOs, law companies and corporate social responsibility (CSR) consultancies.<br/>
