SAMPLE COURSES

Introduction to Forensic Anthropology, a second-year course, introduces students to the use of human skeletal and dental evidence in legal contexts. The course provides students with knowledge of analytic methods that are used in identifying the age, sex and ancestry of Unidentified human remains using skeletal markers, interpretation of DNA, and other related approaches.

Human Osteology is a third year course that covers basics of identification of different bones and teeth, and growth and development of the human skeleton. Emphasis is on the laboratory identification of complete and incomplete human skeletal material and how it is used in different analyses.

Evolution, Ecology, and Biodiversity, a first-year Biology course, emphasizes the evolutionary and ecological processes that underlie the relationship between an organism and its environment. Topics include natural selection and the origin of species, systematics and taxonomy, the origin of biological diversity, growth and reproductive strategies, and communities and ecosystems.
