TITLE: Teachers as Scholars: Evolutionary Perspectives on Human Behavior

DATE: January 10 and 17, 2014

TIME: 8:30-3:30

LOCATION: University Hall, ADP Center Room 1143

INSTRUCTOR: Scott Kight

Ever since Charles Darwin published On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, people have argued about its application to our own species. In this workshop, we will approach the study of human behavior from diverse evolutionary perspectives, including comparative biology, sociobiology, behavioral ecology, evolutionary psychology, and cultural evolution. The goal of this workshop is to critically compare, contrast, and synthesize these perspectives in an attempt to better understand the biological and historical processes that contribute to our human natures.
