In the Master of Science in Human Paleobiology program, students investigate the origins and evolution of humankind through interdisciplinary research using the latest instrumentation.
The STEM-designated program works in tandem with the Anthropology Department’s Center for the Advanced Study of Human Paleobiology and incorporates faculty from the GW Departments of Biological Sciences; Speech, Language and Hearing Sciences; and Anatomy and Regenerative Biology. MS students also benefit from the program’s ties to the Smithsonian Institution’s Human Origins Program and other research centers in the greater Washington, D.C., area.
