Since dual degree students are not required to remain in Kansas City for their third- and fourth-year clerkships, some of their course work is delivered online. This degree is especially designed for students who want to provide leadership as physicians in helping to address the plethora of complex ethical issues confronting medicine today. With the joint degree, graduates should be especially well placed to provide bioethical leadership on hospital ethics committees, among their physician peers and in the local community. This degree should also help student be more competitive when applying for residencies or fellowships after obtaining their medical degree. 164
* Special Note: Dual degree students who are simultaneously completing the D.O. program and M.A. in bioethics program may substitute a combination of IDIS 110: Ethics for Physicians and BETH 506: Exploring the Foundations of Bioethics in lieu of the required course, BETH 502: Introduction to Bioethics. However, dual degree bioethics students who choose this option may not use IDIS 110 to partially fulfill their 4 semester elective requirement in the D.O. program. Master of Arts in Bioethics (Career Enhancement Track) This track is designed for health-care professionals – 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, although the expectation is that the degree will be completed by five years. There is no required order of courses for completion of the bioethics degree. Therefore, career enhancement students may take the required and elective courses in the order that works best for their individual schedules. Bioethics Course Descriptions BETH 501 – History and Methodology for Bioethics This course establishes the philosophical foundations for bioethics. The course begins with a survey of key historical figures, such as Plato, Aristotle, Kant and Mill, as well as several representative 20th century figures, such as Rawls and Nussbaum. Connections between these philosophers and current issues in bioethics are identified and explored along the way. The course also examines different methods of ethical reasoning, such as deontology, teleology, casuistry, aretology and narrative approaches. 3 semester credits BETH 502 – Introduction to Bioethics This course provides an overview of the major areas of bioethics. Participants gain familiarity with the terminology, resources and major frameworks of ethical analysis involved in the field of bioethics. Issues that are examined and analyzed include problemsolving methods, the theory and practice of informed consent, end-of-life decisionmaking, physician-assisted death, pediatric ethical dilemmas, resource allocation and problems posed by managed care, research ethics and organ transplantation. Extensive use of case discussion and analysis assist learners in developing and enhancing problemsolving skills. 3 semester credits 165
