EDIT: people should use this doc from Irene (see the comments)
This doc is a collection of existing lists of EA syllabi / curricula as well as some of my own additions. I made it a few months ago when I was trying to brainstorm all the possible seminar-style programs a university group could run. I didn't have to do much work since there are some excellent existing lists:
- Effective Altruism Syllabi and Courses on longtermism by Pablo Stafforini (mostly official university courses)
- EA syllabi and teaching materials by Julia Wise ("a list of all the known courses taught about EA or closely related topics")
- Library from the Global Challenges Project
- Fellowships & Multi-Week Programs from the EA Groups Resource Center
I think I was still able to find some important additions, especially for AI-related syllabi. Anyone is welcome to comment with suggestions.
I incorporated all of the links from the list above and many more in the syllabi collection of EA Eindhoven. Might also be interesting to check out :)
Awesome! Yours is better than mine. I'll just add to yours from now on.
Here are lists or courses that I collected that I'm too lazy to reconcile with the above:

Thanks! 1st link is my doc, 2nd + 3rd + 4th are on Stafforini's list of EA syllabi, and the 5th link is in my doc.
Going through this list and the annotated contents, I notice some important gaps in the content that is available (or at least the content that is tracked):
Almost no economics-based syllabi (such as Phil Trammel's Topics in Economic Theory & Global Prioritization)
Limited syllabi/courses focusing on empirics
Few syllabi outside philosophy that engage academic literature.
(David Rhys-Bernard's syllabus basically meets all of the above)
Thanks! Note that I have stopped updating this list, because I think the EA Eindhoven Syllabi Collection is more comprehensive.
