clerkships. The second half of the degree requirements are completed
during their third- and fourth-year clerkships. Since dual-degree bioethics
students are not required to remain in Kansas City for their clerkships,

2. One-Year Track (full-time) – This track allows full-time students to
complete the master of arts in bioethics over a 12-month period. As with the
master of science in biomedical sciences degree, some of these students are
eligible for a seat in the next D.O. class, provided that they successfully
complete the bioethics program.
3. Career-Enhancement Track (part-time) – This track is designed for healthcare
professionals (e.g., physicians, nurses, social workers, attorneys,
chaplains, medical technicians, etc.) who have developed an interest in
bioethics professionally and would like to pursue master’s-level training in
bioethics. These students may pursue the master’s degree on a part-time
basis.
