Pre-Health Related Major: Anthropology 

Student holding a Skull
Biological Anthropology examines humans as biological organisms in an evolutionary framework. This, itself, encompasses a very broad range of topics, including human biology, the study of the behavioral ecology and anatomy of living non-human primates, and the fossil record for primate and human evolution. 

The major has been popular with students interested in biology, medicine, dentistry, ecology, evolution, and the earth sciences. Students can participate in numerous research programs internationally or participate more locally on Long Island, including as part of ongoing research within the department.
