Blue Book Electives
Each semester, the McGovern Center sponsors a number of blue book electives, optional short courses that are designed to enrich and enhance the medical student's core curriculum experience. While blue books are primarily open to UT medical students, some of these electives have been made available to students of other schools, including UTHealth's Schools of Nursing and Public Health, and Baylor College of Medicine.
Scheduled blue book electives for the Fall 2012—Spring 2013 academic year:
- Art of Observation
- Healing by Killing
- History of Medicine
- Hot Topics in Ethics
- Introduction to Medical Humanities
- Paradigm Cases in Law and Bioethics
- Suffering: Pathographies of Mental Illness
- The Healer's Art
