BSc Health and Human Sciences

Course Overview

As a student on the BSc (Hons) Health and Human Sciences degree, your learning will be supported by formal teaching sessions, such as lectures and smaller-group teaching in seminars and practical classes. Our curriculum places a strong emphasis on inquiry-based learning, with a particular focus on carrying out field-based research. At the start of your second year, you will visit one of our residential field schools to carry out project work and put your emerging qualitative and quantitative research skills into practice. The Anthropology Department also has anthropometric equipment, a skeletal collection, a fossil cast collection, a material culture collection, and other practical resources that are used in relevant modules, and you may also be able to use these independently, to supplement your learning or for project work. As you move through your BSc (Hons) Health and Human Sciences course, you will shift from being a consumer of knowledge in the classroom to a generator of knowledge, ready for professional or postgraduate life. To help develop this independence, you will spend part of your time engaged in self-directed study, which will include reading, project work, and preparation for classes. In your third year, you will undertake a dissertation on an anthropological topic of your choice, giving you the chance to engage in a major piece of independent work.
