Creativity and Medicine, Florida State University

Physicians blend art and science in the practice of medicine, so it?s no surprise that many doctors have blazed new trails through creative endeavors like literature, art, music, and film. Rather than simply studying the creative work of other physician-artists and authors, this course offers students the opportunity to explore the artistry inherent in the practice of medicine, while fostering their own creative potential in areas ranging from storytelling and poetry to animation, web design, digital imagery or painting, or even game design. May be repeated to a maximum of eight (8) credit hours. This information has been collected for the Post-Discipline Online Syllabus Database. The database explores the use of literature by schools of professional education in North America. It forms part of a larger project titled Post-Discipline: Literature, Professionalism, and the Crisis of the Humanities, led by Dr Merve Emre with the assistance of Dr Hayley G. Toth. You can find more information about the project at https://postdiscipline.english.ox.ac.uk/. Data was collected and accurate in 2021/22.
