Introduction to the B.A. Ethnology at the University of Tübingen

1. and 2. year: Basics and subject areas of the course, methodological exercises (seminars, lectures and tutorials); seminars on different regions; basics in theoretical and applied seminars; courses of regional languages.

2. year: Linking theoretical and regional bodies of knowledge, interrelationships between local, regional, supra-regional / global contexts.

3. year: Internship, study abroad or study project at home or abroad; B.A. thesis with accompanying colloquium.

Major students complete a mobility semester (internship, study project or study abroad) in the 5th semester. The Department of Anthropology supports and facilitates the stay through contacts with institutions in the regions, through cooperation agreements with regional universities, and, if necessary, also through integration into own research projects.

For Tübingen's B.A. Ethnology with its regional, linguistic and intercultural educational profile, mid-level jobs at international institutions, in intercultural management, in the field of development cooperation as well as in the field of migration and integration are possible. Professional internships after completion of the B.A. for further qualification are highly recommended. A Master's degree increases the chances of entering the aforementioned professional fields and is a prerequisite for an intended research activity (doctorate).
