The language of instruction is Norwegian.

The one-year programme is an offer for students who would like to study social anthropology for a shorter period of time.

Social anthropology is the comparative study of culture and society. The starting point for this discipline is the cultural diversity in the world. Anthropologists study the social processes which produce, change and maintain this diversity.

The one-year study is not a degree itself, but it is possible to apply for the bachelor's degree after completing the study.
