This forum is organized around four topics that illustrate how evolutionary theory can inform our understanding of human aggression, and tendencies toward violence. Can evolutionary theory help us prevent violence? Oral presentations will be by invited speakers representing a diversity of disciplines including evolutionary psychology, biological, physical, and cultural anthropology, archeology, and primatology. The meeting will also include a contributed poster session. All sessions will be open to the public.

All P&CS minors are required to take the Capstone Course, which is offered every spring semester. Comm 5810-001 is a unique capstone course number that will remain constant while capstone course content and host department/instructors will vary from year to year. Since P&CS is an interdisciplinary minor, engaged P&CS faculty will teach from relevant and diverse disciplines over time. For more information follow the link to Capstone Course Requirement from the P&CS home web page.
