我来自新泽西州的利文斯顿. I was drawn to UNE for various reasons: the small class sizes, the well-recognized affiliated osteopathic medical school, 友好的环境, 以及它在缅因州沿海的位置. Initially a Medical Biology major on the Pre-Med track with a minor in Nutrition, 休谟 has offered me the opportunity to change my direction and focus my studies in the humanities. This change will allow me to pursue a more diverse path of studies, and help me to develop relevant skills in 沟通, 观察, listening and becoming more tuned to people, 他们的情感, their lives and how differently people can react to similar situations. These are valuable skills that will aide me in assessing and treating patients with 同理心 and compassion once I am a physician. 

My Liberal Studies major will focus on women in society. I will focus on the achievements of women — both past and present — as well as global perspectives on women’s lives and experiences. 今年, I am enrolled in a “Caribbean Sustainable Development” course, for my class will travel to Dominica for two weeks. As we travel the country and study Dominica’s culture, 教育系统, how the people of Dominica strive for sustainability, I will be able to compare and contrast the differences between women of Dominica and women of the U.S. 在多米尼加, I will have a first-hand experience in a school, which will enable me to view the roles of girls in the Dominica educational system and thereby provide me with a better understanding the role of women in Dominica society. 

休谟 ... will allow me to pursue a more diverse path of studies and develop relevant skills in 沟通, 观察, listening and becoming more tuned to people, 他们的情感, their lives and how differently people react to similar situations.

Interdisciplinary Studies in the Humanities, 整骨疗法的医学 (D.O.)

研究 increasingly shows that humanistic study enables development of the wisdom, 同理心, 沟通, and other skills required of practicing physicians. 为了获得这些好处, 休谟 students graduate having completed a senior thesis along with major requirements in 英语, 历史, or Interdisciplinary Studies in the Humanities. Additional curricular requirements provide structured opportunities to engage with UNE’s Center to Advance Interprofessional Education and Practice (CAIEP, formerly the Center for Excellence in Collaborative Education) in order to gain familiarity with the team-based and patient-centered approaches that are at the leading edge of health care today.

Completing required coursework in the sciences at UNE allows students to become familiar with a faculty and campus rich in osteopathic heritage, easing the transition to professional studies. 学生 also benefit from the small class sizes of a humanities faculty with expertise in areas such as bioethics, 病史, and graphic medicine that highlight the necessary interconnections between the humanities and medical science.

休谟 is an enrichment program that offers curricular flexibility — not an accelerated program. It gives students the ability to focus time, 能源, and attention on aspects of the human condition not achievable via a traditional pre-med track.
