A Couple Summer N&M and S&H Options from Anthropology...


ANTH-A 211 THE GENETIC SCIENCE OF CSI

* Meets GenEd N&M Natural Science and COLL (CASE) N&M

* 1st 6 Week Summer Session

* Only three days per week:  MTW 10:20A-12:15P

 

Need N&M Credit? Obsessed with CSI? Want to know the science behind the forensic genetics on these popular shows? Where are you leaving your DNA? What can I tell about you from your DNA (skin color, hair color, eye color, height, disease, ancestry…)? How likely is it that your DNA will falsely implicate you in a crime? Will your next speeding citation include being swabbed for a genetic sample? Is OJ guilty? Who is buried in the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier? Is there really tiger bone in that love potion? Was that sushi you just ate really tuna? These and many other questions will be addressed in this course.

ANTH-A 105  HUMAN ORIGINS & PREHISTORY

* Meets GenEd S&H and COLL (CASE) S&H

* 1st 6 Week Summer Session

* Only three days per week:  MTW 03:00P-04:55P

 

What makes us human? How long have we, as a species, been around? How did humans and our ancestors change over time? In this course, we will address these questions and many others on the topics of human origins and evolution, primates and our closest relatives, and more ‘recent’

developments in human history. We will learn about how scientists and researchers study human development, variation, and prehistory.

 

This course is also available as:

ANTH-A 303  EVOLUTION & PREHISTORY

* Meets with ANTH-A 105 (above)

* Meets only COLL (CASE) S&H

* Great option for students who need upper-level credit
