ANT 395-01 - Advanced Special Topic: Comparative Primate Skeletal Morphology

4 credits (Spring)
In this course we will work very closely with authentic primate skeletal materials – both human and nonhuman.  Students will become familiar with and, ultimately, know these bones at a glance  by the end of the semester.  We will think about, discuss, and write about skeletal materials from comparative and evolutionary perspectives.  Students will master the techniques needed to conduct skeletal research and collect comparative data.  They will use their data in a final project.

Prerequisite: ANT 104  and ANT 205 ANT 221 ANT 225 ANT 227 ANT 280 ANT 290   ,ANT 321 , or ANT 325 , or a strong biology background.
