Academic Resources: Introductory syllabi
We've tried to group each syllabus according to the major themes of the course. Many courses, however, encompass multiple themes.
- If you run a course with significant anthropological content for students at an undergraduate or graduate level, you are invited to contribute details of the syllabus and readings to the SMA archive of academic resources. Each contribution indicates the instructor, the institution where the course was taught and the date when it last ran. Please submit your contribution to webmaster. If you've submitted in the past, please send updates.
