What it is	Anthropology is the study of human cultures, societies, and how people live around the world — both now and in the past. You'll examine everything from language and belief systems to how communities organize themselves and adapt to their environments. This program suits people curious about why humans behave differently across societies and who want to understand cultural diversity on a deeper level.	This program combines business studies with social sciences — covering how companies interact with society, economics, politics, and culture. Unlike a straight business degree, you study sociology, communication, literature, and politics alongside core business courses to understand the human and social side of organizations. It suits students interested in business who also want to explore ethics, culture, and how society shapes markets.	You enter this program without committing to a specific major, taking first-year courses across subjects like English, history, psychology, philosophy, and sociology. This gives you time to explore different areas of arts study before declaring a focus at the end of year one, rather than applying directly to a named program. It suits students who are interested in humanities and social sciences but unsure which direction fits them best.
