The Concurrent Certificate in Health Humanities & Social Sciences (HHSS Certificate) is designed to provide students from many disciplines with an interest in the health humanities and social sciences with an opportunity to develop an academic focus in this area, with the HHSS Certificate serving to recognize that they have gained core knowledge in this area through their coursework. For these purposes, HHSS is understood as the application of creative or fine arts (art, music, performing arts) and humanities and social sciences disciplines (eg. literary studies, languages, law, history, philosophy, religion, sociology, anthropology, etc.) to discuss, express, understand, or promote human health and well-being.
