First Year Undergraduate Units

In the first year, Human Biology I (Becoming Human) and Human Biology II (Being Human) provide a rigorous multidisciplinary study of the biology of humans. Many fields are represented in these units: morphology and function; evolution; genetics; ecology and adaptation; reproduction; neuroscience; demography; behaviour; primates; nutrition; and health. The primary emphasis is on their integration and synthesis in the holistic understanding of the human condition.

Students are given the opportunity to develop skills in oral and written communication, as well as practical work and group learning strategies.

Our Prospective Student Office also provides some information on the School's undergraduate units.
