Evolutionary Anthropology is an innovative science that continues to reshape our understanding of how humans evolved and how we adapt to changing environments. The discipline explores the question of what makes us human, combining the study of evolutionary theory, genetics, primatology, and ancient remains. This program brings students to the forefront of research on human origins and diversity, equipping them with the insights needed to understand where we come from and to adapt to the rapidly changing world ahead. Evolutionary Anthropology complements other programs such as Physical and Human Geography, Human Biology, Psychology, Health and Society, and Environmental Studies.
