The Bachelor's degree in Social and Cultural Anthropology aims 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.
