HA 247 - Taking Sides: Clashing Views on Bioethical Issues


The purpose of this course is to introduce students to bioethics through critical analysis of contemporary issues related to health care delivery and management. The course will address human choices and actions that typically occur in medical practice, such as end-of-life decision-making and will extend to other areas where human life and health are involved, such as artificial reproduction, research ethics, cloning, and stem cell research, and the doctor-patient relationship. Students may not earn more than 5 credits by taking HA, HS or GS one credit courses. Three one-credit options are not equivalent to a three credit course, and cannot be applied to the requirement of major electives.

1 semester 1 credit.
