ANTH101 Introduction to Biological Anthropology

Students acquire basic knowledge of the processes of human evolution and variation. Primate and hominin evolution are surveyed. Students explore subjects relevant to human evolution such as Mendelian and population genetics, primatology, paleoarchaeology, and biological diversity in modern human populations. Special attention is given to the origins of cultural behavior in primates and culture's increasing flexibility and diversity as the Hominine line evolves.
