Program Overview

It has taken 7 million years of struggle to make us ‘human’. How did we get here and why? Investigate the biological and behavioural changes that made us the species we call Homo sapiens on this new MSc Human Evolution.

  • Gain advanced practical and theoretical experience in the methods and practice of human evolution research
  • Enjoy hands-on training in archaeological fieldwork, including the excavation of human remains
  • Acquire knowledge of the human fossil record, ancient DNA, proteomics, Neanderthal archaeology and spatial analysis
  • Gain insights into the early archaeological records of Africa and Eurasia, archaeological and evolutionary theory, as well as ecological, environmental, and climate change modelling
  • Engage independently and critically with a significant body of data on the foundations of human evolutionary studies
  • Acquire knowledge of a wide range of perspectives, cultures, practices and benefits of variation and diversity within the human species
  • Delivered as a collaboration between the University of Liverpool and Liverpool John Moores University, studying MSc Human Evolution gives you the unique opportunity to benefit from two institutions’ specialisms.

You will gain expertise in the human fossil record, ancient DNA/proteomics and Neanderthal archaeology/spatial analysis. Through LJMU’s collaboration with the Poulton Project, you will have access to archaeological sites with burials and large skeletal collections for practical training. You will also benefit from learning in dedicated laboratory facilities for osteological analyses and practical field training in the excavation and recording of human skeletal remains.
