HUM 341 - Humanities and Medicine (Honors)

3 Credit(s)

By exploring medicine through the humanities, students can discover mirrors within societies that reflect the many faces of medicine. This course challenges students to widen their viewpoints on medicine, especially considering the dichotomous terms of life-death, health-illness, and provider-patient. Key activities include writing a formal research paper, leading a classroom discussion, and participating in special course activities (i.e., guest speakers, museum visits, and live performances). This course also requires students to participate in preparing, enacting, and critiquing a live dramatic performance related to the medical humanities. Students may not receive credit for both HUM 340 and 341.
