The MSc China in Comparative Perspective programme brings together LSE’s considerable multi-disciplinary expertise on China. Drawing on a range of social science disciplines, we compare Chinese politics, history, society, and culture. The programme introduces students to comparative social-science frameworks, and deepens their knowledge of China and the contemporary world.
While based in the Anthropology department, this programme is flexible and enables you to shape your studies to your own needs and interests by drawing on LSE’s multi-disciplinary expertise on China. Students develop key skills such as comparative theory, critical thinking, self-directed learning and communication.
This programme is ideal preparation if you have career interests related to China in business, government, or cultural exchange. It also provides an excellent foundation for further research. Upon completion, students will be equipped for PhD level study in anthropology, economic history, government, international relations, or social policy.
