Since I am technically a senior now, I get the opportunity to register for classes before everyone else at the UA. This past Sunday, I registered for spring semester 2010 and what a pleasant surprise! I consulted the ridiculous amounts of paperwork regarding how many classes I have left and it appears I only have a total of 3 semesters left. After Spring 2010 I only need 3 more anthropology classes, 1 more biology class, and 2 sign language classes. That's it! Sometimes I actually feel like it might be over soon...
Next Semester's Schedule:
Cultural Astronomy - Cultural astronomy is an interdisciplinary field bridging anthropology, astronomy, and history. In this course we will focus on the astronomy of various people within their cultural context. We will explore some of the many ways that astronomy arises within cultures in comparison to our own culture. We will consider definitions of science and astronomy, and issues of efficacy, accuracy, and functionality. This course includes mathematics, essay writing, and oral presentations.
Methods in Biological Anthropology - Basic methods utilized in modern Biological Anthropology. Development of research designs, data collection and statistical analysis, computer applications, human skeletal biology, primatology, paleoanthropology and techniques appropriate to living human population; biocultural emphasis. This is a Writing Emphasis Course.
Introduction to Archaeological Analysis - Introduction to analysis of major classes of archaeological materials, including chipped and ground stone, ceramics, fauna, flora, and architecture. Uses lectures and hands-on exercises.
Evolutionary Biology - Basic processes and patterns of evolution: natural selection, evolutionary genetics, the analysis of adaptation, the phylogeny of life, the fossil record, molecular evolution, macroevolution.
