Anthro at Edinburgh
Social Anthropology Ma (Hons)
University Of Edinburgh
Alexander, August 2007Overall score
Graduated this year and hugely enjoyed my university experience. Well-organised course, with some unusual course options, taught by some of the best known academics in the field.Possibly the only course which offers a practical element, where students conduct their own fieldwork and then write a 15,000 word thesis-this was a fantastic experience as it really is at the heart of the discipline.Highly recommended!
Study experience
Lecturers are varied but generally excellent.
Facilities
Library a bit outdated but is being refurbished.
Postgraduate life
Once again cannot really comment

Great community feel
Social Anthropology Ma (Hons)
University Of St Andrews
Harriet, November 2007Overall score
Its small so there is a great community/family feel especially by the time you hit 3rd/4th year. The setting is stunning, as the old uni sits on the Scottish coast. Lecturers are very helpful and supportive. The uni could improve learning resources e.g. the library.
Study experience
The course is very good, lecturers are helpful, however applied anthropology is rather absent.
Facilities
There is a 24 hour IT library available, typically you don't have to wait for or book a computer. Uni bar is cheap and usually most people end up in the early hours. St Andrews has the highest concentration of pubs for any town in Europe. Sports facilities are bad. Very small gym.
Postgraduate life
Loads from sailing to wine and cheese!
