This course examines possible biological bases of modern human behavior, from a scientific and multi-disciplinary perspective, to explore questions regarding what comprises "human nature".
Outcomes: Students will demonstrate an understanding of how science is conducted, as well as interactions between science and culture, in the context of how evolutionary approaches to animal behavior may be applied to the study of human behavior.
