> The Department of Sociology and Social Anthropology at Stellenbosch University, in collaboration with the Department of Interdisciplinary Health Sciences (Division of Community Health), invites applications for two new postgraduate degree programmes in Transdisciplinary Health and Development Studies: a postgraduate diploma and an MPhil degree (by thesis or by coursework).
> 
> We invite students from a range of disciplinary and professional backgrounds, including social science, health, development, and policy, who are interested in gaining a strong conceptual foundation and applied research experience and skills to engage critically with health and development challenges.
> 
>  The Postgraduate Diploma prepares students for professional work or further academic study through a core set of required modules, combined with a series of methodological and topical electives and a short research assignment. The MPhil (by coursework or by thesis) will benefit researchers, planners and policy analysts in government and civil society seeking to strengthen their analytical and research skills as well as gain a transdisciplinary perspective on health and development.
> 
>  Bursaries are available for students applying to the MPhil degree. Details can be found on our website.  Applications are welcome until 10 January 2015. Bursary applications are due by 30 December 2014.
