Medical Anthropology Program's teaching activities link together the
Department of Social Medicine and the Department of Anthropology and
include courses for Harvard undergraduates. Drs. Kleinman and B. Good
teach a large core course on "Culture, Illness, and Healing,"
and Dr. M. Good offers an advanced course on "Medical Sociology."
The Harvard Program in the History of Medicine is an interfaculty program
jointly sponsored by the Harvard Medical School and the Faculty of Arts
and Sciences. At Harvard Medical School, teaching and research are based
in the Department of Social Medicine. At the Faculty of Arts and Sciences,
the program is based in the department of the History of Science, a
department offering graduate and undergraduate programs leading to a
PhD. The Harvard Program in the History of Science conducts a vigorous
educational curriculum at all levels of the University. The Program
has established an especially strong medical history curriculum for
Harvard undergraduates in the honors concentration, History and Science.
Students in this program spend three years in structured tutorial program,
eventually writing an original senior honors thesis in the history of
medicine and science. Currently more than 160 Harvard students are enrolled
in the program. The Program reaches a large number of non-concentrators
as well; more than 250 undergraduates were enrolled in the Core Curriculum
course, Medicine and Society in the fall term,1999
