MPH 303 Biomedical Ethics
This course develops an ethical framework that can help students/ future caregivers to take responsibility for working with other persons. The general background is derived from the doctrine of the Catholic Church. Therefore, it is important that the students know the documents of the Holy See concerning
respect for life and the evolution in the field of bio-ethics. Finally, a model will be discussed that can be used in the ethical reflection of concrete situations. Reading, class discussion and guest speakers will provide background information for the students to consider in shaping their personal convictions.
