The current state of affairs is this: there are limited programs in this subject. I've been asked many times if there are any degrees or programs in the subject area of cyborg anthropology or digital ethnography. There are few. Many are related to the history of science and technology, the anthropology of science, or science and technology studies.
I've gathered the few courses I've been able to find through contacts or on the web. This is not an exhaustive list and I need your help. If you teach a course in Cyborg Anthropology, Digital Anthropology, or Science and Technology Studies please contact me at case@cyborganthropology.com.

Program in History & Philosophy of Science and Technology - Stanford University
About the Program The Program in History and Philosophy of Science and Technology at Stanford teaches students to examine the sciences, medicine and technology from myriad perspectives, conceptual, historical and social. Our community of scholars includes core faculty and students in History and Philosophy and affiliated members in Classics, Anthropology, English, Political Science, Communication and other disciplines. Together, we draw upon the multiple methods of our disciplines to study the development, functioning, applications and social and cultural engagements of the sciences. Stanford's Program in History and Philosophy of Science and Technology is a collaborative enterprise of the Departments of History and Philosophy. Each department has its own undergraduate and graduate degree programs in this area, but these overlap and interact in several ways. First, because of the interdisciplinary structure of requirements, students who come into the program through each department take courses and work with faculty in the other. This helps to create a single community of students and faculty, as does the colloquium series, which brings everyone together regularly throughout the year. The faculty from the two departments also team-teach core courses in which students do joint coursework, and the graduate students conduct joint activities including an annual conference, Critical Conversations.
