UNIVERSITY EXPERT DEGREE IN APPLIED BIOETHICS IN THE CLINICAL AND CARE FIELD
New qualification 2016-2017
justification
The development of health professions in the 21st century presents a series of challenges that go beyond techno-scientific training. The great social changes, the biotechnological development and the paradigm shift in the professional-patient relationship model produce increasing complexity in the exercise of the health professions.
In this context, bioethics becomes an interprofessional discipline that offers a framework for reflection and dialogue in the face of issues that arise both at a more general level and in the usual healthcare practice.
The University Expert Title in Applied Bioethics in the Clinical and Healthcare Field offers training in clinical bioethics, providing both a theoretical knowledge base and, on a more practical level, clinical case resolution methodology, as well as training in areas specific, depending on the interests of the students.
Targets
General objectives:
-Acquire bioethical knowledge both at a general level and in specific areas
-Develop the case discussion methodology

Specific objectives:
-Acquire knowledge of philosophical and anthropological bioethical foundations
-Know the basic principles in bioethics and fundamentals of biolaw
