School of Human Evolution and Social Change
About Us
| Known for its leadership in innovative education and research, the School of Human Evolution and Social Change goes beyond the scope that traditionally defines the study of anthropology. By building upon the discipline’s chief strength — its holistic, long-term perspective, it recognizes a vast range of interests, academic fields and research methods. The school integrates tools and knowledge from across the sciences and social sciences to discover not only who we were but where we are going and how we may alter our destiny.
