Student Networks

 

The Australian Network of Student Anthropologists (ANSA) was established in 2005 by Australian postgraduate students.

ANSA aims to:

• Share knowledge, experience, and support amongst student and early-career anthropologists

• Provide a voice for student interests and encourage student participation with the Australian Anthropological Society (AAS), with specific attention paid to the needs of postgraduate students enroled at Australian Universities.

• Provide resources and information for students and early-career anthropologists

ANSA is a sister association of the AAS. The AAS provides funding for a range of ANSA initiatives, including;

• Travel grants to assist students presenting at the AAS Annual Conference

• Prizes in the ANSA visual ethnography competitions

More information about ANSA activities and membership is available on their website.

 

In Western Australia, there are several Facebook Groups and clubs at universities that support students:
