<p>well the title is pretty much the gist of it. should i focus on anthropology, biological or cultural?
and what other areas should i take classes in?
thanks!</p>
<p>In the absence of a medical anthropology program (I was surprised that such a specialised undergraduate major exists; UNC Chapel Hill seems to offer that), cultural anthropology would be your best bet.</p>
<p>You might also find interesting classes in the history or regional studies or public health departments. My own college offers courses such as “Topics in African History:-Soc & Cultl Hist of Medicine” (history), “Medicine, Magic & Miracles” (classics), and “Medicine, the Body & Society” (sociology).</p>
<p>that sounds almost exactly what i’ve been leaning towards! what college are you attending?</p>
