TANZANIA:
Human Evolution & Ecology (ACM) (fall)
Offered by the Associated Colleges of the Midwest (ACM), Tanzania:
Human Evolution and Ecology is an interdisciplinary program in the
natural and social sciences offering undergraduates the rare opportunity
to conduct field work in some of the world's greatest paleoanthropological
and ecological sites. Students divide their time between the University
of Dar es Salaam and the Northern Region of Tanzania. Courses include
Swahili, human evolution, ecology of the Serengeti Plain, and research
topics. Six weeks are spent in tent camps while pursuing individual
field research in the Serengeti/Ngorongoro area. During the first
two months, students live in dormitories at the University of Dar
es Salaam; housing in the field is in tents at an established campsite,
and during the final four weeks in homestays or guesthouses near
the university. Eligibility: preference given to students with backgrounds
in anthropology and the natural sciences. Familiarity with archaeological
and/or ethnographic field methodology strongly recommended.
