BA in Anthropology and Sociology in Bentley Australia | Curtin University

In today's interconnected world marked by cultural evolution, businesses increasingly require professionals who grasp the complexities of human behavior.

Anthropology investigates humanity through diverse cultural perspectives, while sociology analyzes how social structures and broader economic, political, and societal forces influence human behavior. Together, these disciplines provide comprehensive insights into human societies across time and space.

This program combines the complementary strengths of both fields. You'll examine both local and international scenarios to understand how cultural norms, social institutions, community dynamics, and individual experiences evolve amid global communication networks and shifting economic, political, and environmental landscapes.

Your studies will address modern challenges including personal identity, domestic structures, gender dynamics, linguistic patterns, environmental sustainability, developmental strategies, equity issues, and fundamental freedoms. You'll also acquire analytical tools to address these regional and worldwide transformations, along with practical social science research methodologies.

Available within the Bachelor of Arts degree, this major allows you to complement your studies with either a secondary specialization or elective courses tailored to your professional aspirations.
