The Anthropology and Development Postgraduate Certificate and Taught Masters degree programmes are directed primarily at development and humanitarian aid professionals (and those who envisage such a career). This course provides a holistic and critical approach to culture, the inevitable context of all relief and development activity. The field orientation of anthropology focuses on the links between global and local processes, between abstract theory and real behaviour, and among the various dimensions of human life - political, economic, familial, religious, etc. The interconnections and interactions among these is the principal concern of the discipline, and the real context for any development work.

The Certificate course is designed as an introduction to students, from a variety of backgrounds, to critical issues at the overlap of anthropology and Development Studies. On the successful completion of this course students can continue with an MA in Anthropology & Development.
