HP 322 Health Humanities
This course will display the relevance of the humanities and social sciences to preparation for careers in the health professions. It will give introductory critical attention to literature, visual arts, film, theater, music or dance from multiple cultural perspectives in an attempt to develop students’ capacity for relating to patients on a human level - morally, by being sympathetic or empathetic; interpersonally, by being able to elicit appropriate responses and communicate effectively; and creatively, in their ability to analyze patients’ symptoms and conditions. The course will also introduce students to historical and political analysis of health care to broaden students’ understanding of the context in which they will practice their professions. Students should take EHP 101 and EHP 102 whenever possible, especially if they are taking this course as part of the Health Humanities Certificate Program. Credit(s): 3
Prerequisite(s): Recommended to take EHP-101 AND EHP-201
