Course Summary

The Department of Anthropology offers supervision in a wide range of areas at MPhil and PhD level.The MPhil/PhD Visual Anthropology can be achieved through two main strands:Research projects that centre on the study of visual cultures, such as various forms of media representation or artThe use of specific visual methodologies as a central feature of the research project itselfThe programme focuses on the visual as a vital and defining factor in the research project as a whole.Additional practical training can be provided, alongside some access to department audio-visual equipment and facilities, but we generally expect MPhil/PhD candidates to have an appropriate level of practical visual production skills and to be largely self-sufficient in this area.MPhil/PhD students are currently carrying out visual projects in Mexico, India, Argentina, Lebanon, Israel, and the UK.Normally research students register for the MRes in order to complete the requisite training to carry out a doctoral research project. You then transfer to MPhil status after completing your MRes dissertation in September (or in your second year if you are part-time).However, if you already have a substantial background, it is possible to register directly for the full-time MPhil, provided the department and your future supervisor(s) agree.MPhil-registered students do exactly the same research training as MRes students, but they present a student dissertation in May, in order to fast-track to fieldwork or other forms of data collection.

Entry requirements

Should you not hold an MA in Social Anthropology from a UK university it is likely that you need to register for the MRes Visual Anthropology before you can move to the MPhil.

There is little difference between the taught Masters and the qualifying year, except that the qualifying year is not a qualification in itself and involves no dissertation. If you achieve the required standard, you can apply to register for the MRes or MPhil/PhD.
