As a distinctive discipline, the anthropology department started its journey in 1995. This discipline began its activities with three years of honours and a one-year master's degree, and the first honours degree was awarded in 1998 and the master's degree in 1999. Fieldwork-based research and integrating distinctive perspectives to studying society, theory, and research rapidly attracted the student to the department. The popularity of this discipline in the contemporary world and the usefulness of the subject matter gave this department an important space. Currently, the departmental academic and other activities are run by the tireless labour and dynamic ‍activities of the seventeen teachers. There are five other faculty members pursuing higher studies at home and abroad. From the start, 30 batches are running now, and the students of this department are joining different universities in teaching and are also engaged in the research and development sector, administration, banking, etc., and are playing a role in the country's development. In addition, every year, a large number of students of this department go abroad with a scholarship for higher education and add to the good reputation of the country by joining different organisations. Every year nearly 68 students enroll in BSS (Hons), and almost 55 students enrol in MSS in this department. Along with academic activities, this department organises ‍study tours, seminars, and workshops. Besides this, it organises different cultural programmes, including National Day, Women's Day, Children's Day, and Indigenous People's Day. We welcome prospective students to take part in this journey.
