Forensic Anthropology What is Forensic Anthropology? According to the American Board of Forensic Anthropology, forensic anthropology is the application of the science of physical anthropology to the legal process. The identification of skeletal, badly decomposed, or otherwise unidentified human remains is important for both legal and humanitarian reasons. Forensic anthropologists apply standard scientific techniques developed in physical anthropology to identify human remains, and to assist in the detection of crime. Forensic anthropologists frequently work in conjunction with forensic pathologists, odontologists, and homicide investigators to identify a decedent, discover evidence of foul play, and/or the postmortem interval. In addition to assisting in locating and recovering suspicious remains, forensic anthropologists work to suggest the age, sex, ancestry, stature, and unique features of a decedent from the skeleton.

PROCEDURE FOR RESEARCHING AND WRITING A THESIS IN PHYSICAL ANTHROPOLOGY NOTE THAT IF YOU ARE NOT DOING A THESIS IN PHYSICAL ANTHROPOLOGY THESE GUIDELINES MAY NEED TO BE MODIFIED. ASK YOUR ACADEMIC ADVISOR. One of the core requirements of most graduate programs is some form of research project. Our program at UM is no exception. When a graduate research project is written up, the resulting document is called a thesis or dissertation. Usually, the term dissertation is reserved for a specific type of thesis prepared while earning the Ph.D. degree. STEPS IN A GRADUATE RESEARCH PROJECT Choose a project. Write a proposal for your project. Choose a thesis committee. There is a form for doing this that has to be filed at the graduate school. Submit your proposal to the committee members. Do your research. Write up your thesis and present a draft to your committee members. Make any changes or additions that your committee requires and resubmit it. Repeat this step as often as necessary. When your committee decides you are ready to defend your draft, work with them to set up a time and place for your thesis defense. File your defendable draft at the graduate school, along with the proper form. Defend your thesis. When you pass, file the proper form at the graduate school. Make a final draft of your thesis, make sure that it's in the format required by the graduate school. Make an abstract, title page, etc. Submit the required number of copies of your final draft (along with the proper form and fees) to the graduate school.

Forensic Anthropology at the University of Florida The Department of Anthropology at the University of Florida offers graduate study in Biological or Physical Anthropology. Within biological anthropology at Florida there are several sub-specialties that students can pursue, including paleoanthropology, primate behavior and ecology, skeletal biology, bone chemistry, functional morphology , forensic anthropology , human genetic variation and biomedical studies. The forensic anthropology course of study includes coursework in biostatistics, zooarchaeology, water and soil sciences, human gross and functional anatomy, biomechanics, radiology, osteology, as well as human evolution and genetic variation. Most importantly, however, we emphasize the hands-on approach to forensic anthropology. The department has two working forensic anthropology laboratories, the C.A. Pound Human Identification Laboratory and the Human Identification Laboratories at Turlington. Service to the State of Florida and outside agencies continues to be the major focus of the laboratories, however, coordination of graduate student education with members of the teaching faculty has increased dramatically. Graduate students work closely with Dr. Anthony B. Falsetti ( falsetti@ufl.edu

Going To Uni (DEST) Biological Anthropology Major - Overview Overview Honours Summary of Courses Offered By: ANU College of Arts and Social Sciences Convenor: Dr Robert Attenborough Biological anthropology is the branch of anthropology that focuses on the evolutionary and biological aspects of humankind: Homo sapiens as an evolved species - human populations as varied and dynamically changing sets of biological individuals, adaptable but also vulnerable to ever-changing circumstances. It is also concerned with the non-human primates, and with current debates on the biological bases of human social behaviour. The subject thus encompasses what used to be called physical anthropology, as well as primatology, palaeoanthropology and human population biology, including human genetics and the study of human health, nutrition, growth, demography and ecological adaptation, viewed comparatively and synthetically. Biological anthropology thus takes an overview of the various biological specialisms as they apply to human beings and their evolutionary relatives, especially at the population level. Its place amongst the anthropological disciplines is reflected in its comparative (cross-cultural and cross-species) approach.

Introduction to the Course Description Readings Requirements ... Contact Information "The proper study of mankind is Man." Alexander Pope, An Essay on Man WHAT IS BIOLOGICAL ANTHROPOLOGY? Biological/Physical Anthropology Defined The subject matter of this course overlaps the foci of several fields. As currently taught, it falls most clearly within the sphere of biological/physical anthropology. Anthropology by definition [ anthropos logia ] is the study of humans in all of their complexity. Biological anthropology takes as its focus the biological aspects of our existence. Critically, it does so within the framework of evolutionary theory and with attention to biocultural development, that is the interplay of biology and culture. The question that we, along with other anthropologists posewhat does it mean to be human? (top) History of the Field Physical anthropology, the original name of the discipline, was initially spurred by interest in human variation during the period of exploration and the chance discovery of fossils. It began to develop as a separate discipline in Europe in the 1800s and through the campaigning of Ales Hrlicka, it was finally recognized as a separate field in 1928 with the founding of the American Association of Physical Anthropologists. Just as the hallmark of anthropology in the broad sense is its holistic perspective, physical anthropology is a synthesis of many fields. As physical anthropologists study physiology, anatomy, genetics, behavior, environment, adaptation, and evolution, they do so stressing the interrelationship among these spheres.

Widener academics Return Home about admissions academics ... Anthropology FORENSIC ANTHROPOLOGY Forensic Anthropology is a field associated with Criminal Justice or international investigative organizations (those responsible to document human rights violations through mass killings). It combines cultural and biological anthropology, criminal justice, and biochemistry in an effort to identify victims of homicide and determine the cause of death. This is portrayed on the television program Bones . Shows like CSI portray Forensic Scientists, not Forensic Anthropologists. In order to be a practicing Forensic Anthropologist, you need at least a Masters Degree, or for the highest certification a Ph.D. in Biological Anthropology, which Widener does not offer. Our program prepares one for graduate study and is accepted by a dozen of the best graduate programs as a proper foundation. The minor may be taken as part of the Anthropology major. The courses you need to take to earn a minor in Forensic Anthropology are: ANTH 105 (3 credits) Cultural Anthropology ANTH 204 (4 credits) Physical Anthropology (with lab) ANTH 208 (3 credits) Race and Racism ANTH 216 (3 credits) Archaeology of Long-term Change ANTH 308 (3 credits) Forensics Anthropology CJ 105 (3 credits) Introduction to Criminal Justice CJ 210 (3 credits) Criminal Courts (3) CJ 225 (3 credits) Principle of Criminal Investigation CJ 305 (3 credits) Criminal Evidence (3) CHEM 101/3 (4 credits) Introduction to Chemistry I (with lab) CHEM 102/4 (4 credits) Introduction to Chemistry II (with lab)

Student Opportunities Forensic Anthropology Program at MU A re you interested in studying forensic anthropology? Choosing the right school to attend is extremely important. Students must consider factors such as geographical location, cost, faculty, funding opportunities, courses offered, resources available, and many others. Answers to the following questions will provide you with information about forensic anthropology and some of the advantages and disadvantages of studying it at the University of Missouri-Columbia (MU). This information should allow you to make an informed decision. What is forensic anthropology? Forensic anthropology is an applied branch of biological anthropology. Specifically, it is the application of knowledge about human and nonhuman skeletal biology, human variation, skeletal pathology, archaeological field techniques, and cultural diversity to a medicolegal context. Forensic anthropologists are generally concerned with the identification of skeletonized or severely damaged human bodies. Biological anthropologists that specialize in forensics are often called upon by medical examiners and law enforcement agencies to estimate sex, age, population affinity, and stature of unidentified remains. Furthermore, forensic anthropologists are frequently asked to assist in the recovery of human remains at the crime scene, analyze trauma, and estimate how much time has elapsed since death.

Using an evolutionary perspective, we examine not only the physical form of humans - the bones, muscles, and organs - but how it functions to allow survival and reproduction. Because these studies take place within an understanding of the context of human behavior and culture, physical anthropology stands as a unique link between the social and biological sciences. At UCSC we focus on skeletal material but within the framework of a functioning organism, each with its own life story written in the bones. Primary research interests include paleoanthropology, primate anatomy and evolutionary theory ( Adrienne Zihlman ), human skeletal biology and forensic anthropology (
