What you’ll learn

The Health Humanities minor offers students a pathway to explore the intersection of the arts, humanities, and health sciences. Students take courses that improve observation skills, examine the human condition in relation to health, illness, and healing, and engage with the history and culture of medicine.

Students pursuing this minor may be interested in our Art History (B.A.) program.

Why Study Health Humanities at La Salle?

The Health Humanities minor provides a unique interdisciplinary exploration of illness, public health, policy, access, and caregiving through the lenses of the arts, humanities, and social sciences. This program equips students with essential transferable skills for health science careers, making it a valuable addition to your education.By diversifying your academic background, you will enhance your appeal to healthcare employers across various fields, including clinical care, management, insurance, marketing, research, health informatics, and sales. It also invites non-health students to explore medicine and science through a humanistic lens, fostering a deeper understanding of the human experience in health contexts.

Meet the Faculty

Our faculty teach across disciplines, bringing a breadth of knowledge and experience to enhance students’ education, within the classroom and beyond.
