Our department is a diverse group of staff and students who come from countries all around the world to conduct research and study anthropology at Durham. We pride ourselves on being a friendly, welcoming and inclusive place to study and work. We aim to create a working environment that supports all our students and staff to thrive.
We are located in the Dawson Building, along with the Archaeology department, next to the main library, and close to lots of other departments and central services.
Discover more about being part of our community through Durham University Anthropology Society (AnthSoc). Events, socials, field trips, careers and experiences. By students, for students.
We are committed to promoting equality, diversity & inclusion (EDI) in all areas of teaching and research. We seek to promote equality of opportunity for all our students and staff, promote diversity in our community, provide an inclusive environment and eliminate any harassment or discrimination.
