This postgraduate diploma from the Faculty of Arts and Sciences helps students develop critical thinking and applied knowledge in anthropology, building the theoretical and applied foundations necessary for anthropological analysis. The 30-credit programme runs full-time or part-time, with day and evening courses at the Montreal campus, and full-time completion takes a minimum of two trimesters, with up to twelve trimesters (four years) allowed. Coursework combines theoretical grounding in anthropology with applied methods, preparing students to analyze social, cultural, and human phenomena across settings. Graduates are prepared for applied roles in research, community organizations, government, and other fields drawing on anthropological analysis, and the programme can lead into further graduate study.
