WAYNE STATE UNIVERSITY: Wayne State establishes new graduate certificate in health care ethics

Doctor(1000)

Wayne State University issued the following announcement on Aug. 17.

Due to the increasingly urgent and complex ways in which moral and political issues bear on health care, global health, and public health law and policy, there has been a growing need for ethical training among professionals in these fields.

In response to this increasing demand, Wayne State University has launched a new graduate certificate in health care ethics. This program, which will offer courses starting in the fall of 2020, is housed in the philosophy department of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences.

The graduate certificate in health care ethics is an online, four course program that is designed to combine academic rigor with practical relevance. Courses in the program cover both general theories such as of normative ethics and jurisprudence, as well as applications to specific ethical, legal, and policy questions in health care.

Courses include Justice and Rights in Health Care, and Ethics, Law, and Health. All courses are taught by widely respected full-time faculty in the Department of Philosophy, all with Ph.D. degrees and some with both a J.D. and Ph.D.
