Culture and society are often the fundamental aspects in a sociocultural anthropology program that studies human nature and cultural diversity within societies. Students may study these aspects in relation with language, religion, psychology and even politics during research and fieldwork.

A bachelor's degree is given to students who fulfill the necessary requirements given by the college or university they are attending. The requirements include three to seven years of focus on a subject, typically referred to as a major or concentration.

Part time learning allows one to obtain part-time degrees even if one cannot attend school on a full-time basis. One can learn at his or own pace, gradually accumulating credits which count towards final qualification.
