Attendees are able to learn about the various specialisations of participating universities and ask anthropologists from specific departments questions in live sessions.
The Universities section shows links to the participating universities and more information about the courses they offer. The event is free and open to Year 12, 13 and FE Students, Careers Advisers, teachers, parents and anyone interested in learning more about anthropology.
