University of Miskolc to launch BA course in Cultural Anthropology

Students can study cultural anthropology as a BA course only at one university in Hungary, which is the University of Miskolc, from the academic year of 2020/2021. The course is designed to meet the requirements of the 21st century. The prospective cultural anthropologists can use their knowledge successfully in the corporate sector, in public or municipal positions and in the non-governmental sphere, as earlier graduates do now.

The aim of the renewed course is to train anthropologists who have practical knowledge in the social sciences. They are able to not just recognize the problems, processes and conflicts of sociocultural situations but they also possess visual research tools, which enable them to understand and analyse connections so that they can participate in promoting solutions and also contribute to implementation. Graduates can use their knowledge and competences efficiently in the public, municipal, civil and non-profit sectors and in different fields of the corporate world.
