Learning outcomes
|
In the course, students will first focus on general bioethics, its terminology, procedures and basic theoretical approaches. The seminars will proceed from the acquisition of general expertise in the field of bioethics, especially to their application to selected problematic areas of biomedical disciplines. During the final seminars, the ability to connect these selected problematic phenomena with a broader social context will be practiced. In addition to this expertise, students will be guided throughout the course to develop the ability to critically analyze the moral dilemmas of bioethics and ethics in the biomedical fields.
The students will acknowledge themselves with the informations acording to the goal and the matter of the course.
