Quest 1 Courses
All honors students are expected to complete an honors version of the UF required Quest 1 course.
The UF Quest program invites students to consider why the world is the way it is and what they can do about it. Students examine questions that are difficult to answer and hard to ignore in a world that is swiftly changing and becoming increasingly more complex. What makes life worth living? What makes a society a fair one? How do we manage conflicts? Who are we in relation to other people or to the natural world?
Quest 1 courses fulfill the UF Quest 1 requirement and 3 credits of the General Education requirement in the Humanities. Some may also fulfill either the Diversity (D) or the International (N) requirement and/or count toward the Writing requirement - please check the schedule of courses.
Please use the UF Schedule of Courses to find times, places, and other course information.

All of us need to be creative and analytical, empathetic and intuitive, and skilled critical thinkers and communicators, and immersion in the medical humanities will hone these abilities. To do this, we will explore, discuss, and reflect upon experiences with medicine as they are portrayed in film, literature, non-fiction, poetry, music, and art.
