We are delighted you have chosen to join us for the next few years, and are looking forward to meeting and getting to know you soon. Anthropology staff are busy preparing events for the start of term to help you get to know us, and each other, and find out more about what Anthropologists do, and why we do it. We are excited to have you arrive, and are keen to involve you in all aspects of Department life.

Anthropology is a transformative discipline - it will change the way you think, and maybe even who you want to be! We strongly believe that everyone should take at least one Anthropology course in their lifetime, and so we open some of our modules to students from across the University. This means our Department is a busy and vibrant place, where you will also find friendly postgraduates and staff. We conduct research on all manner of topics imaginable (from energy to evolution, and reproduction to rhetoric), so we are sure you will find plenty to interest and enthuse you here, and we are excited to be able to share it all with you.

See you in welcome and orientation week!

Professor Jamie Tehrani
Head of Department
