Anthropology Honours

Welcome to Honours. We trust that you will find the year enjoyable but more importantly valuable in terms of its contribution to your further postgraduate studies and/or your career.  Honours is a tough but ultimately an extremely rewarding year, where for the first time you will be doing “real” anthropology. As long as you immerse yourself in reading extensively around your chosen topic of study, and in experiencing and systematically recording your relationships with a range of people within your fieldsite, you will look back on the year as one is which you grew exponentially on both a personal and academic level. You will have learnt how to reflect on your research data and to draw out analytic themes emerging from them. In applying yourself to creating a sustained and coherent piece of writing around your research you will have been initiated into what it is that anthropologists do and why anthropology is exciting.
