It provides advanced training for undergraduates who are interested in careers in archaeology, forensics, health services, or similar fields that rely on scientific methods to analyze human biological and cultural diversity. The degree emphasizes analytical training, including laboratory analysis and field research, quantitative methods, and advanced coursework on data collection, management, and interpretation.
