The program trains students for work as archaeological technicians, adding a vocational component to an academic discipline. Archaeology, with its modern emphases on scientific problem solving, an evolutionary perspective, and ecological theory, is also a valuable part of a student's science education. » Grade Requirements: A minimum grade of "C" in courses counted toward fulfilling the major (a grade of "C" is not acceptable) and an overall GPA of 2.00. » Credit Hour Requirements: Minimum of 26 credit hours for the Institutional Certificate, which must include Engl ENIOIO (3) or equivalent.

ANTHROPOLOGY COURSES ANTHRO Anthro SS/DV 1000. Introduction to Anthropology (3) Anthropology is the study of humankind, past and present: our origins and the development of cultural behavior and biological attributes. This course examines what it means to be human, describing and explaining human differences and similarities throughout time and across the world. Anthro SS/DV2000. Peoples and Cultures of the World (3) A survey of cultures around the world, exploring their similarities and differences as observed by anthropologists. Anthro SS2100. Principles of Archaeology (3) Archaeology attempts to reconstruct prehistoric and early historic human life ways as well as long term cultural and biological evolutionary processes through the scientific study of material remains. This course focuses upon the history of archaeology, the ways in which archaeologists recover and analyze data, and the major theoretical perspectives used to interpret the past. Anthro LS/DV2200. Biological Anthropology (3) Explores the human fossil record, human evolution, population genetics, primatology, and modem human biological diversity from a biocultural perspective.
