The medical humanities minor at Western Â鶹´«Ã½Ó¦Óà University is beneficial for students who wish to understand the humanistic elements of health and health care, including their psychosocial, ethical, religious, literary and artistic aspects. In particular, the minor will be of interest to students pursuing careers in:

• Health sciences—medical humanities will positively influence how students approach patient care, allowing them to view patients with greater empathy and awareness.
• Traditional disciplines in the humanities—students will encounter and explore the human condition as it relates to health-related adversity and triumph.
