Welcome to CHES Online
The Center for Human Evolutionary Studies (CHES) at Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, constitutes one of the world's leading research, teaching, and training programs in the study of the evolution of human behavior.
Our strengths lie in our multidisciplinary approach to this study, our world-class faculty and research associates, and our highly competitive graduate and undergraduate students, including a number of foreign students from the countries in which some of our research projects are based.
We also enjoy access to some of the world's premier localities for the study of our closest living primate relatives, and for the investigation of the fossilized remains and archaeological traces of our early human ancestors.
The Department of Anthropology established The Center for Human Evolutionary Studies (CHES) in 1996. The Center's primary mission is the discovery, teaching and public dissemination of knowledge on the origin, evolution, and biological and ecological bases of human behavior.
The Center includes faculty from the Department of Anthropology with expertise in all facets of human evolutionary studies, including prehistoric archaeology, hominid and primate paleontology and functional anatomy, primatology, social evolutionary theory, and paleoecology.
