The goal of the course is to provide students with details of the field of forensic taphonomy as currently configured. As there is a dearth of good forensic taphonomic research, this course will provide students with an opportunity to explore their particular interests in forensic taphonomy by conducting extensive literature reviews of the topics of their choice during each week?s focus. Those students interested in conducting research through a Master?s thesis in a forensic taphonomy will be given wide latitude to explore the topic and create an extensive bibliography. The final product for those students will be a literature review, final research design, and data colLecturetion.
