课程简介
生物医学技术的进步
This programme provides an opportunity to undertake in-depth study of healthcare ethics and law, and to develop the ability to think systematically and critically about the moral and legal issues that healthcare professionals and those involved in healthcare management and policy may encounter in the course of their work. Ideal for working professionals or recent graduates, the programme comprises four taught modules plus a dissertation on a topic chosen by the student. Teaching takes place in short, intensive blocks to facilitate combining study with full-time work, and the course may be studied flexibly over one,<br>two or five years.<br>New developments in treatments and technology, coupled with shifting social attitudes, mean that the legal and ethical issues around healthcare and medicine are constantly changing, posing serious challenges for those involved.<br><br>Practical in focus and regularly updated to reflect new issues that arise from COVID-19 to the role of AI in healthcare our MA aims to help you navigate the complex moral and legal considerations surrounding the planning and delivery of healthcare, and associated activities such as medical research.<br><br>Is it acceptable, for example, to disclose a patient's medical history to protect others from infectious diseases like HIV At what point should healthcare professionals stop trying to prolong life Or, to save a life, should doctors ever overrule a refusal of treatment based cultural or religious reasons or an advance directive<br><br>Undertaking a medical ethics course cannot provide all the answers not least because there are far too many questions to consider, but also because there often is no easy answer. However, it can prepare you to work out answers yourself responsibly, professionally and with integrity.<br><br>Drawing on real-life and hypothetical cases, research, news and shared experiences, our MA introduces you to relevant concepts, theories and frameworks highlighting their pros and cons and providing you with a range of analytical tools with which to assess different ethical and legal claims. Youll also learn to communicate ethical and legal arguments more clearly to others.<br><br>Working on a range of scenarios and with a focus on practical application, youll construct, categorise and criticise different ethical arguments, spotting common fallacies and identifying weaknesses in an argument. For example, students recently considered the moral and legal arguments raised in a 2021 High Court case on the Abortion Act 1967, and whether a provision permitting abortion up until birth in the case of foetal disabilities such as Down Syndrome was discriminatory and in contravention of Human Rights.<br><br>The course typically attracts a broad range of professionals in healthcare, law and related areas, recent graduates and intercalating medical students, which enriches discussion, debate and shared experiences. In fact, students frequently tell us that what they value most is being exposed to a huge range of contrasting viewpoints, meeting and exchanging ideas with peers who work in different fields and sectors, in other parts of the country, and sometimes the world.
