Are you interested in the BSc programme Cultural Anthropology and Development Sociology, but not yet sure what it all means? Come to our Experience Day!
During this day you will get in touch with some of our students, our study adviser and our staff. You will experience what it's like to walk through the coridors of the faculty building, sit in the lecture halls, and take part in a real lecture and tutorial together with other prospective students.

A little preparation
As a student you will often need to prepare some readings or assignments before a lecture and tutorial. To make to most out of this student Experience Day we want to ask you to prepare this small assignment.
During the mini-lecture and tutorial, we’ll explore the theme of dignity and values. To help you prepare, we’d like to ask you to do two things beforehand:
1. Watch the short documentary
Watch the 15-minute video A Struggle for Care: Public Health and Private Insurance in BrasĂlia about Erik Bähre’s research in Brazil.
Watch the video
2. Have a look at your own social media
Can you find examples of how social media can either strengthen or undermine someone’s dignity? And can you find examples where people’s choices are influenced not only by money, but also by other values, norms or ideas?
You don’t need to hand anything in or prepare extensively, but just give these questions some thought beforehand. We’ll explore them further together during the tutorial.
