Cultural Anthropology and Development Sociology

Pre-master

This is the overview of the courses offered within the pre-master programme in Cultural Anthropology and Development Sociology (CA-DS).
In the Admission Statement each student has received an overview of the courses that he/she is required to take as a part of their pre-master programme.

It is not possible to enroll for the pre-master CA/DS in Leiden without having applied for the master’s programme. After one applies for the master’s programme, the Admission Committee will decide whether the possible deficiencies can be diminished by a pre-master programme which can amount to a maximum of 60 ECTS. Based on the prior education of the candidate the Admission Committee will decide what the contents of the pre-master must be.

Please note that most courses that are part of the pre-master are taught in Dutch because they are all a part of the BA programme in Cultural Anthropology and Development Sociology.

Application for the master CA-DS, including the three specializations, can be done through the website www.mastersinleiden.nl .
