HUMBIO 2B: Culture, Evolution, and Society

Introduction to the past, present, and future of human biological and social structures. Topics include the evolution of hominids and the origins of human diversity, the development of agriculture and the modern state, human population growth and global demographic change, patterns and consequences of inequality, and conclude with a discussion of our place on a rapidly changing planet. HUMBIO2B, with HUMBIO3B and HUMBIO 4B, satisfies the Writing in the Major (WIM) requirement for students in Human Biology. HUMBIO 2A and HUMBIO 2B are designed to be taken concurrently. Lectures in the two courses will address related content from complementary perspectives, so as to enhance understanding. Concurrent enrollment is strongly encouraged and is necessary for majors to meet recommended declaration deadlines. Human Biology majors are required to take the Human Biology Core Courses for a letter grade.
