Welcome !

Studying Cultural Anthropology/ Cultural History imparts knowledge of cultural diversity, difference and identity. This happens through practical, research-based learning and stimulating, community-building thought and discussion processes.

Developing an understanding of the analysis of social and cultural phenomena and conflicts in historical and contemporary contexts is one of the core objectives. A genuine unique feature of our course at the FSU Jena? The balanced combination of Cultural Anthropology  (Empirical Cultural Studies) and Cultural History.
