ANT 295-06 - Special Topic: Evolution and Reproduction

2 credits (Spring)
In this two-credit short-course, we will examine human reproduction from an evolutionary anthropological perspective. It will be a whirlwind class with some biology, some policy, and some anthropology. Topics will include: parent-offspring conflict theory, menstruation, conception, pregnancy, gestation, and lactation. Our goal is simple: you should know more about human reproduction at the end of this course than you did when you started. This course will fulfill general anthropology credits.

Prerequisite: ANT 104 . 
Note: Dates: April 3 to May 8. Half-semester deadlines apply.
Instructor: Bentley-Condit
