From My Time at UC Santa Cruz:

Here’s a list of the courses I taught at UC Santa Cruz, along with syllabuses. (If you’re a current student, don’t assume that these syllabuses are the same for Binghamton.) My undergraduate courses tended to focus on the social study of medicine and science (and sometimes qualitative methods):

ANTH 134: Medical Anthropology: An Introduction (2014)

ANTH 136: The Biology of Everyday Life (2012)

ANTH 153: Medicine & Colonialism (2011)

ANTH 194M: Advanced Topics in Medical Anthropology (2013)

My graduate courses at UC Santa Cruz were a little more varied, and covered things like anthropological methods, experimentation in the arts, social sciences and sciences, and social theory:
