Biomedical Sciences - Biological Anthropology - Ph.D. Download to print

The Ph.D. in Biomedical Sciences–Biological Anthropology prepares graduates to teach both human anatomy and other cognate fields in demand at most medical schools (neuroanatomy, cell biology, physiology) and, thereby, normally face attractive post-graduate training and teaching options. Many graduates also use their training and teaching experience to enter regular anthropology or corporate research positions.
