Title description

Anthropology undergraduate studies aim to train professionals capable of developing the theoretical and empirical foundations that enable scientific understanding of cultural diversity and ethnological heritage. This involves fostering and developing the capacity to explain intercultural relations in the social world around us and contributing to the improvement of the social model.

In addition to its transcultural perspective and interest in intercultural relations, social anthropology is characterized by its use of fieldwork-based ethnography as a form of field-specific research. It studies and analyzes social inequalities and ethnic, class, gender, and age identities; cultural variations in interaction with social flows and, especially, with the functioning of organizations, institutions, and businesses.

Addressed to

The student must demonstrate an interest in social reality and the processes that occur within it. They must be especially sensitive to the diversity and complexity that governs this social reality, which calls for the establishment of connections and relationships between seemingly distant issues. A curious, open, and creative person with a critical attitude is required. A person motivated by social intervention and willing to observe spaces and situations, communicate with people, analyze documents, and leverage resources aimed at problem-solving.

The knowledge acquired in the social sciences and humanities baccalaureate, as well as in the modules of social integration and sociocultural animation, provide a foundation more in line with the subjects that will be studied in the degree, which will contribute to a better understanding of the subjects and facilitate the student's progress.

Practicing Social and Cultural Anthropology involves maintaining ongoing personal relationships in different settings and at different levels, while also paying special attention to the cultural diversity that characterizes our discipline. Therefore, it is desirable to have the ability to socialize and interact with people, to work in teams, and to accept diversity without prejudices based on sexism, xenophobia, racism, homophobia, age and/or disability, ideology, or any other differences between individuals.

Regulated profession

Career opportunities

It is a discipline with significant opportunities for professional development, especially in fields such as international relations and cultural diversity, ethnological heritage, territorial development and international cooperation, cultural promotion and management, and social consulting and intervention.

Since the specific content of the discipline consists of the study of cultural diversity and intercultural relations, it can offer a decisive contribution to the study and intervention in pressing social issues in our country, such as multiculturalism and migration processes, aspects for which solidly trained professionals will be needed in the coming years.
