One "leg" of the mission of the Institute of Human Origins is public outreach—so visits to the institute offices are available to the general public and educators. To discuss outreach, contact:

ASU Open Door

ASU hosts its Open Door event each year in early spring. The event offers a window into the creative energy that powers a world-class university with more than 100 interactive activities hosted by ASU student volunteers, faculty, and staff.  

For Teachers and Educators

If you are an educator in the Phoenix or Arizona region, who is interested in human evolution presentations, please contact Julie Russ at jruss@asu.edu or 480.727.6571 to discuss setting up a presentation by one of our IHO-affiliated graduate students on human origins topics that will complement your in-class coursework. See more about K-12 resources at this webpage.

Also visit AskAnAnthropologist.asu.edu for fun science activities and interesting stories about evolutionary anthropology!

General Public

IHO moved into our new offices on the second floor of the Walton Center for Planetary Health at 777 East University Drive. If you would like to have a tour, please email Julie Russ at jruss@asu.edu to sign up for a visit.
