“An eye-opener:” a qualitative study of a liberal arts approach to medical education

Abstract

Medical students reported a profound effect of including a liberal arts approach in the medical undergraduate curriculum as delivered at UGHE. With increased accessibility to online education, it has never been more important to examine and support the humanization of education-particularly for medical students who wish to tackle global health equity. A liberal arts approach may offer a path forward.
