Welcome

The London Anthropology Day is an annual university taster day for Year 12, 13, FE students, careers advisers and teachers.

The event is held at the British Museum where you can find out all about anthropology and what it might be like to study it at university. You’ll take part in workshops run by anthropology lecturers, get advice on the different types of university degrees out there and have a chance to look around the Museum’s “ethnographic” (anthropological) galleries. The day is free and open to Year 12, 13 and FE Students, UCAS Advisers, AimHigher co-ordinators and teachers interested in using anthropology in the classroom.

The next London Anthropology Day is July 10th 2008. This year we have a record number of 17 universities attending, with representatives from England, Ireland and Wales, making 2008 a truly national Anthropology event!

On this website you can find out more details about the day, book a free place, request publicity material for your school or college and find out what on earth anthropology is and why you might want to study it! You can also follow links to the participating universities' web-pages where you can find out all about the particular anthropology degrees they offer.

This event is organised by the Royal Anthropological Institute and the British Museum in association with university anthropology departments.
