1 Cultural Anthropology and Development Sociology (MSc) Master Discover the world at Leiden University Type Language City Specialisations Master English Leiden Global Ethnography (MSc) Sociology of Policy in Practice (MSc) Visual Ethnography (MSc) The Master s programme in Cultural Anthropology and Development Sociology teaches students how to do research into the ways in which people experience and cope with global problems at the small scale of their everyday. Study global problems on small scale 1

2 The Master s programme in Cultural Anthropology and Development Sociology focuses on the everyday practices of people to situate them within complex challenges. You will study people who may live lives that are economically fragile, in environments damaged by pollution or disaster or feel they lack the rights of full citizens in the country where they live. You will learn to research how these people acquire the resilience that allows them to cope with them, and how they maintain continuity in a world that is often difficult to handle. Learn how to conduct ethnographic research Through the experience of ethnographic research, you will learn how to enter, participate in and understand another world. To this end, our staff members co-opt students into their own research specialities and train them to work in field research sites that they select and organize together. Intensive coaching by individual supervisors, course teachers, and field research trainers prepares students for your personal field research project. This also speeds up the process of settling in a field site, understanding its research context, and acquiring the skills of reporting results to an audience in an academically responsible way. Choose one of our three specialisations The Master s programme in CA/DS offers a unique set of choices: you can join staff members in their Global Ethnography research specialties; you can work with a company, a museum or an NGO in a Policy in Practice project; or you can set up a Visual Ethnography project (subject to previous training). Staff members are actively involved in our Field Research and Training opportunities in West Africa (Ghana), Southeast Asia (the Philippines) and the Netherlands, because they offer students the most effective road to a good research result. Alternative sites become available, however, through Global Ethnography projects. Impressions of the field 2

All classes are taught by accomplished scholars and small classes give you valuable time interacting with your supervisors. An excellent start to your career Your MSc Cultural Anthropology and Development Sociology qualification from Leiden University is respected by organisations worldwide. But that's not the only advantage of studying at Leiden.

Our students learn how to become critical thinkers a quality that will ensure they stand out in any future career. The Leiden Experience About the programme Cultural anthropology and Development Sociology at Leiden University teaches students how to study social relationships across space and time by thorough ethnographic fieldwork. At Leiden Univerisity you can tailor your MSc Cultural Anthropology and Development Sociology with a specialisation that reflects your area of interest. Our different specialisations cater for students with or without proficiency in audio-visual methods and range from policy-oriented research to individualised research projects. This structure allows us to accommodate students with diverse undergraduate backgrounds, objectives and expectations. 8

9 When choosing your specialisation consider the following: The master's specialisation in Global Ethnography provides students with the opportunity to do their own three-months field research, create their own research networks and build on the experience of our specialised researchers, gaining excellent social scientific skills. Master's specialisation in Global Ethnography The master's specialsiation in Sociology of Policy in Practice focuses on policy-oriented research either abroad or in the Netherlands. It offers students a mix of social scientific skills and the opportunity to work on an own personal three-month research project in the field of policy at an organisation or company. Master's specialisation in Sociology of Policy in Practice The master's specialisation in Visual Ethnography emphasizes a strongly hands-on, empirical approach by conducting two-month ethnographic research. This requires students to play an active role in mastering the audiovisual toolbox. Master's specialisation in Visual Ethnography Our Field Schools provide students with the unique opportunity to carry out independent research under the guidance of experienced researchers. They provide additional training in ethnographic research techniques, in which you gain insights in some of the most frequently used tools and techniques (e.g. interview, survey, network analysis and mapping or photo and video elicitation) that may help you with your project. Currently, we offer field schools in Ghana and in the Netherlands, and they can be combined with the specialisation of your choice. The objective of the master's in Cultural Anthropology and Development Sociology is to equip ambitious students with the essential knowledge and skills to study the everyday practice of individuals, groups, and communities worldwide. And you will be able to situate these within the complex global challenges of diversity, sustainability, and digitalisation. 9

There is a wide variety of activities you can do next to your studies, to make the most out of your student life. Why is studying in Leiden so much fun? Leiden is a small student city, but it doesn t feel small at all. Around 10 percent of the inhabitants is a student. These students are from all over the world, with over 105 different nationalities studying at Leiden University. The city is compact and safe, but still conveys an international atmosphere, with students from all over the world represented throughout the streets of Leiden. Next to your study 14

15 As a student there s plenty to do in Leiden. You can join one of the many student unions and societies: sports-related, study-related or just to have fun outside your studies. The range of student unions and societies on offer is enormous. This enables you to be as active as you please during your student years. Relaxation and enjoying your time in this beautiful city are also key parts of studying here! There are also plenty of opportunities to develop your skills in the different student unions and societies, during the OWL or El Cid introduction weeks or through the different committees of the university. Student city If you can t find the scene you re looking for at one of the many student unions and societies, then the city of Leiden still has plenty to offer you. Pay a visit to one of the three cinemas, go out for lunch or dinner in one of the many vibrant (and very affordable) restaurants, visit the theatre or other performing arts at the Leidse Schouwburg or the Stadsgehoorzaal Leiden. What about enjoying the sun on a terrace alongside the canals? Leiden is on the edge of the Green Heart, enabling you to enjoy the countryside outside of the city. The beach and other cities, like Amsterdam, Den Haag, Delft, Rotterdam and Utrecht, are also close to Leiden. Due to the central location of Leiden, many students take the opportunity to explore other cities and countries in Europe during their weekends or holidays. Traditions Apart from Leiden being a vibrant student city, Leiden University is the oldest university in the Netherlands. Leiden University has century-old traditions and a very rich history. Since 1575 the university has enjoyed a prominent place in the city of Leiden and since its founding the university its motto has been Bastion of Freedom. Leiden as a city also dates back many centuries. As a result it has many monuments, including the Waag (Weigh House), the city hall and the Academy Building. The Academy Building once held many student lectures and still does, while also containing the famous Sweat Room, the place where all graduates of Leiden University have signed their name on the wall. What to do in Leiden Leiden has a wide selection of events which take place throughout the year and there s always something you can do to enjoy yourself. For example during the annual Museum Night, the Leiden International Film Festival, the Night of Arts and Knowledge and of course the city s local celebrations such as the Relief of Leiden on the 3rd of October. Leiden has many museums and beautiful monuments that elucidate the amazing history it 15
