Substantive Degree Program Proposal Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board Proposal for a Doctoral Program Directions: This form requires signatures of (1) the Chief Executive Officer, certifying adequacy of funding for the new program; (2) the Chief Executive Officer, acknowledging agreement to reimburse consultants’ costs; (3) a member of the Board of Regents (or designee), certifying Board of Regents approval for Coordinating Board consideration; or, if applicable, (4) a member of the Board of Regents (or designee), certifying that criteria have been met for Commissioner consideration. Additional information and instructions are available in the Guidelines for Institutions Submitting Proposals for New Doctoral Programs found on the Coordinating Board web site, www.thecb.state.tx.us/newprogramscertificates. Institution officials should also refer to Texas Administrative Code (TAC) 5.46, Criteria for New Doctoral Programs. Note: Institutions should first notify the Coordinating Board of their intent to request the proposed doctoral program before submitting a proposal. Notification may consist of a letter sent to the Assistant Commissioner of Academic Quality and Workforce, stating the title, CIP code, and degree designation of the doctoral program, and the anticipated date of submission of the proposal. Information: Contact the Division of Academic Quality and Workforce at (512) 427-6200. Administrative Information 1. Institution Name and Accountability Group: Texas State University, Doctoral University-Higher Research Activity 2. Program Name: Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) major in Applied Anthropology 3. Proposed CIP Code: CIP Code: 45020100 CIP Code Title: Anthropology CIP Code Definition: A program that focuses on the systematic study of human beings, their antecedents and related primates, and their cultural behavior and institutions, in comparative perspective. Includes instruction in biological/physical anthropology, primatology, human paleontology and prehistoric archeology, hominid evolution, anthropological linguistics, ethnography, ethnology, ethnohistory, socio-cultural anthropology, psychological anthropology, research methods, and applications to areas such as medicine, forensic pathology, museum studies, and international affairs. 4. Program Description: Texas State University’s Department of Anthropology is proposing an applied anthropology PhD program that incorporates intercultural communication, interdisciplinary understanding, research design, grant writing, project management, ethics and professional conduct, methods of data collection, and the use of theory in the interpretation of data. These are the skills desired by potential employers and they are reflected in the proposed program’s educational objectives. The department will offer between 12 to 15 three-credit hours of doctoral courses every year, which totals between 36 to 45 SCH (semester credit hours) every year. Page 1 of 486 3/20/17 The global economy has created a tremendous need for research-based information and pragmatic uses of anthropological knowledge and skills, creating exciting and extensive career opportunities for applied anthropologists in nonacademic settings. Texas State excels in two areas of applied anthropology: forensic anthropology and cultural resource management (CRM) archaeology, which are the two emphases of this proposed program. Rigorous state and federal laws ensure the future demand for PhD anthropologists in both of these applied areas. Despite these legal mandates, no PhD programs in applied anthropology exist in Texas. The program is strengthened by the expertise of faculty whose teaching and scholarly activities are focused in forensic anthropology and CRM archaeology, and by two applied anthropology research centers: the Forensic Anthropology Center at Texas State (FACTS) and the Center for Archaeological Studies (CAS). These centers will provide unique, hands-on educational opportunities and training for PhD students, ensuring they have the marketable skills needed for employment. These opportunities for practical learning in forensic anthropology and CRM archaeology are not commonly found in a university setting. 5.

Aus technischen Gründen konnte – nur bei Aufsätzen vor 1990 – der originale Zeilenfall nicht beibehalten werden. Das bedeutet, dass Zeilen- nummern hier nicht unbedingt jenen im Original entsprechen. Nach wie vor un- verändert ist jedoch der Text pro Seite, so dass Zitate von Textstellen in der ge- druckten wie in der digitalen Version identisch sind, d.h. gleiche Seitenzahlen (Pa- ginierung) aufweisen. Der im Aufsatzkopf erwähnte Erscheinungsort kann vom Sitz der Gesellschaft abweichen, wenn die Publikation nicht im Selbstverlag er- schienen ist (z.B. Vereinssitz = Hallein, Verlagsort = Graz wie bei Almogaren III). Die deutsche Rechtschreibung wurde – mit Ausnahme von Literaturzitaten – den aktuellen Regeln angepasst. Englischsprachige Keywords wurden zum Teil nach- träglich ergänzt. PDF-Dokumente des IC lassen sich mit dem kostenlosen Adobe Acrobat Reader (Version 7.0 oder höher) lesen.

ABSTRACT The analysis of human remains in archaeological contexts is often complicated by the presence of highly fragmented and commingled remains. The standard methods used to help quantify the number of individuals and elements in these contexts are based upon the segmentation of whole bones. The methods provide standardization and are flexible enough to allow for the idiosyncratic nature of each context. However, this results in a lack of transparency, which is necessary to reanalyze the same sample or to compare “like” contexts, as the data collected will vary.
