Graduate Diploma in Arts in Anthropology

University of Canterbury

The Graduate Diploma in Arts offers those who hold a bachelor's degree in a major in an unrelated area the opportunity to study arts in-depth, choosing from over 30 subjects. The GradDipArts is designed for graduates seeking to qualify for entry to postgraduate qualifications in arts, to change career direction, or to extend or upgrade their existing qualifications. If you are interested in the history of our existence, languages and cultures, identity, and religion, then Anthropology is for you. At UC, you will learn about our collective history, and explore future issues like the evolving role of technology in our lives, power structures and systemic issues, and where our global culture might be heading. Study Involve: Study topics that challenge your current way of thinking, and get you thinking deeply about the topic. Get hands-on experience with real ancient artefacts through UC's Teece Museum of Classical Antiquities, based at Te Matatiki Toi Ora, Arts Centre of Christchurch, with a collection spanning more than 2,500 years from about 2,000 BCE. Get involved on campus through clubs and advocacy. Combine your interests with other studies by adding Anthropology to many UC bachelor’s degrees.
