About this Course

What is the origin of humans and what sets us apart from other primates? Humans have pondered this for countless generations. The answers are at the core of anthropological inquiry. In this course, we will explore biological and archaeological evidence of human origins. This hands-on, activity focused course provides students with a framework for thinking critically about human origins, the relationship between biology and culture, and a deeper understanding of the diversity of human nature.
