HHUM 498 - Independent Study/Capstone Experience

Credits: (3)

Prerequisites: Senior status; in addition, students enrolling in HHUM 498 must be pursuing Track 2 of the Health Humanities minor or have permission of the program coordinator.
This course is for students completing Track 2 of the Health Humanities minor and is offered as an alternative to HHUM 410: Capstone Experience. Each enrolled student will work in consultation with the course instructor and a faculty mentor to design a capstone experience for the health humanities minor that aligns with the student’s prior academic work, career and educational goals, and personal interests. As part of this experience, students will be expected to produce: a project that incorporates the aims and methods of the health humanities; a presentation of the project in a wider venue, either on campus, in the community, or on the web; and an ePortfolio of their overall engagement with the health humanities.
