Pre-Med? Consider English!
Our major features courses where, through what might be described as an immersion experience in literature, you will learn to cultivate your imagination and subsequently use it as a resource to help you understand the plight of the individual you might not otherwise have encountered in life, but who as a physician you are guaranteed to encounter.
Our courses emphasize active engagement with the unfamiliar “other,” as depicted in fiction, film, the digital humanities, the media arts, and in other forms of narrative. New courses include “Literature, Medicine, and Ethics” and “What is Public Health? A Humanities Approach.”
