This will be accomplished by a rigorous curriculum that includes a strong grounding in biological/ bioarchaeological anthropology, but with a significant focus on all of the major components of the discipline of forensic anthropology, including forensic osteology, forensic archaeology, forensic taphonomy, and skeletal trauma. Most graduates of the program will be encouraged to continue their education in a doctoral program within the disciplines of forensic anthropology, biological anthropology, criminal justice, or forensic sciences. They will possess extensive academic, field and laboratory skills in both forensic anthropology and physical anthropology that will allow them to compete academically with other graduate students in any of the top biological or forensic anthropological doctoral programs.     Accreditation Information:   # Of Credits Required:   Time To Degree:     Previous Degrees Pre-Requisite Courses International Student Requirements Requirements Qualifying Exam: Minimum Exam Score: GPA or Equivalent: English Proficiency: Research Competency: Clinical Internship:   Work Experience Volunteer Experience Publications Experience Foreign Language Requirement Other Requirements   Cost Per Credit Hour: $   Tuition:   Financial Aid Offered:       # of Students Enrolled Full Time: 156  # of Students Enrolled Part Time: 141  Average GPA:   Average Test Scores:   Charge Per Credit: $454  Annual Full Time Avg Institution Tuition: $13620  Financial Aid Offered: Yes  Average Work Experience: Less than 1 Year  Specializations:   # of Terms Per Year:   Placement Percentage:   Historically Black: No   Religious Affiliation: Roman Catholic
