Methodology

The theoretical aspect of the course will be taught mainly in the first year, allowing students to conduct and defend an ethnographic research project in the second year. Teaching is carried out face-to-face and brings together new theoretical perspectives, significant changes in contemporary anthropology, and recent ethnographic analysis. Master's classes are combined with reading seminars, tutor supervised activities, and research practicals. The Master's programme is taught in Spanish, as well as Basque language and English, with all three languages being accepted as working languages for the Master's thesis and other assignments. Some of the programme is also part of the Master's in Feminist and Gender Studies with the two courses sharing a four-month term.The two-year design of the Master's provides for students starting in any academic year: students will join either the first or second year of each session. 1.
