The Postdoctoral program in Sociocultural Anthropology offers the necessary research tools to engage in education or generate contributions in the academic field. This branch of Social Anthropology seeks to understand its epistemological status within the social sciences and its operational possibilities in local, regional, national and international contexts.

The professional in this area will be able to work in academic research, applied research and field work. Likewise, they will be able to diagnose, advise, plan, execute and direct applied research, and assume different modalities of direct work with the population in environments and institutions.

Our program does not require every student to study the same subjects and use the same books and other learning materials as every other student.
