Best universities in Australia for Anthropology

Anthropology sits within Social Sciences and Psychology. Across Australia, 11 registered courses in the subject are on offer, delivered by three providers. That is a small field, so the choice of institution matters more than it might in larger disciplines. Study levels run from Graduate Certificate through Graduate Diploma to Master's Degree. The University of Western Australia, Monash University and the Australian National University are among the providers. If you are weighing up options, check which levels each one registers and whether the qualification you want is actually available where you plan to study.
