Bachelor of Science in Medical Humanities

The Medical Humanities major helps students increase their understanding of the nature of illness, health, wellness, healing, and medicine by exploring these topics in three blocks of classes that share a commonality of focus. The Major in Medical Humanities is intentionally flexible and interdisciplinary, reflecting both the needs of students and the nature of the field.
Medical Humanities is an interdisciplinary field that explores, from multiple perspectives, connections between humans, cultures, medicine and allied health sciences. Medical Humanities complements the Health Sciences, and encompasses the Humanities, Social Sciences and the Arts. It includes topics related to: health and illness, the interactions between health practices and conceptions of personhood, gender, and community, beliefs, practices, healing and ethics across cultures, the nature of suffering, and models of wellness. The minor is useful for pre-med students as well as those considering careers in nursing, social work, psychology, public health, human resources, or any other health care related occupation.Just as a human being is more than a patient or subject, we are more than an academic unit. Come join our vibrant community of students, educators, practitioners, artists and community partners.
