The medical and humanities certificate requires 11 to 12 credits.

The following course is required:

  • HST 370 - History of Medicine and Health

The additional eight to nine credits are to be completed by taking one course from each of the three course categories:

  • Perspectives on human health and development
  • Perspectives related to end of life
  • Ethics in health and medicine

No more than two courses can have the same department prefix. You can only apply two courses from the certificate toward a major and another two to a minor. Some honors courses may be used to fulfill certificate requirements; sign off will be handled on a case-by-case basis. See gvsu.edu/catalog for course details.
