Course summary
What this course is about
UCAS code: L761
Here's what Brunel University of London says about its Human Geography and Anthropology with Placement course.
This course combines the expertise of our staff and research across two closely related disciplines to develop your knowledge and skills in both Human Geography and Anthropology.
Human Geography explores the complex relationships between societies and environments that are at the centre of the most important challenges that face people around the world today.
Anthropology offers a unique and powerful understanding of cultural and social diversity in the modern world. It considers issues which can lead to mind blowing revelations about how individuals and cultures experience life differently.
In the first year you will have an introduction to the fundamentals of both subject areas, and in the second and third years you will choose from a wide range of modules, choosing half from each subject. Within Human Geography, modules focus particularly around themes of cities and urbanism; post colonialism, race and migration; and political ecology and environmental justice. Key themes in Anthropology are childhood, youth and education; development, war and humanitarianism; and global health.
Both subject areas offer opportunities to learn about the world immersively through fieldwork, developing skills that will make you highly employable. All students do a residential geography field trip in the first year and can opt to do another in the second year.
Together these two subjects compliment each other and provide you with graduate opportunities in local and national government, international organisations, NGOs, the media, research and education.
