Anthropology

Cultural anthropology is a branch of anthropology that aims to scientifically study cultural and social aspects of humans. The study focuses on cultural beliefs, cultural practices, and social organizations of human groups.
Since culture is highly influential, cultural anthropologists are eager to research and analyze how individuals and societies adapt to different ecologies, institutions, and ideologies and develop different practices.
There are many undergraduate and postgraduate courses available in India.
You can apply to West Bengal State University (WBSU) if you want to pursue a postgraduate degree in cultural anthropology from Kolkata.
The college offers a two-year regular postgraduate degree, an M.Sc. in Social-Cultural Anthropology.
The teachers here are very helpful to students, and the course curriculum is relevant to make students industry-ready.
Applications for admissions into this course at WBSU are made online. The tuition fee for the course is INR 18,150, and candidates should have a graduation degree (B.Sc. or B.A.) in anthropology from a recognized institute or university to be eligible for admission.

Dear aspirant, The University sends study materials to the students by registered post and if a student does not receive
the same for any reason whatsoever, the University shall not be held responsible for that. In case you want to have access to IGNOU course materials in electronic form you may visit the website. Assignments are uploaded online on the University website. Students are advised to download it from
the IGNOU website. The students are specifically instructed to submit the Examination Forms through online mode ONLY
and as suggested under Section 7.2. Students are also advised to submit the Registration/Re-registration
Forms through online mode ONLY and with late fee as per instructions given under Section 4. If any
student sends the Registration/Re-registration Forms, Examination Forms at wrong places and thereby
misses the scheduled date and consequently a semester/year, he/she will have no claim on the University for regularization. Hope it helps.
