- The program will provide a foundation in the history, philosophy, legal, social, and theoretical approaches to bioethical analysis, as well as in science and health policy. Another distinctive feature of the program is the option for students to select a topical area in which to concentrate their advanced studies. These concentrations represent existing or emerging areas of knowledge that pose complex questions about the relationship between science, ethics, and society.
- The three pre-designed concentrations are Genomics, Neuroscience, and Public Impact and Engagement. Students may also design an independent concentration with program faculty. In addition to coursework, each student will complete a capstone project under the guidance of a faculty mentor: either an in-depth research paper, or a field placement to gain practical experience (“practicum”), with a written report analyzing the experience and integrating concepts learned in the program. The capstone project is designed to demonstrate that a student has acquired extensive knowledge of current thinking in bioethics; has collected, synthesized, and reflected on these issues; and has developed competence in scholarly writing.
- A distinctive feature of Duke’s MA in Bioethics & Science Policy is the opportunity to concentrate in a specific area to allow students to focus on an existing or emerging area that poses fundamental questions about the relationship between science, ethics, and society. However, you are not obligated to select from these choices and are free to explore custom concentrations tailored to your interests (see the 4th choice below).
