Wake Forest University Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Bioethics Department of Social Science and Health Policy Medical Center Boulevard Winston Salem, NC 27157 US   Phone: 1-336-716-1499   At a Glance Program Requirements Tuition & Financial Aid Institution Overview Important Dates Upcoming Events Degrees: Program Format: Master's Master of Arts in Bioethics On Campus   The Master of Arts in Bioethics degree program at Wake Forest University is designed to provide students with knowledge and skills that enable them to better address the bioethics issues arising in biomedical research, clinical medicine and health policy. The degree enhances the student's own background and skill set in health administration, public policy, ministry, teaching, research, hospital ethics committee and IRB service, and health law. Many students enrolled in this program will be career professionals in medicine, law, science, or religion, and others who are actively engaged in health care delivery and/or health care administration. Others wishing to add bioethics knowledge to their educational pathways will also be enrolled. We seek a broad and diverse community of students, in order to heighten the value of the learning process. Students employed in health-related fields who undertake master’s-level study in bioethics have found that the MA degree may assist them in changing activities, job titles, or positions. Students previously employed in other fields have found that the MA degree enhances their expertise and helps to create opportunities within their own profession, or to branch out into other areas. This nationally oriented bioethics program takes advantage of Wake Forest University’s unique attributes and strengths by focusing on social justice, biotechnology, and research ethics, as well as on clinical ethics. Students enrolled in the program will gain valuable practical experience in bioethics in a variety of ways, including: serving as research assistants to bioethics faculty members; assisting in the educational and research projects undertaken by the Wake Forest University Program in Bioethics, Health, and Society; and undertaking a practicum experience in clinical or research ethics, for example with Wake Forest Medical Center’s Clinical Ethics Committee or Institutional Review Board.     Accreditation Information:   # Of Credits Required:   Time To Degree:     Previous Degrees All applicants should have received a baccalaureate degree.  Pre-Requisite Courses International Student Requirements Requirements Qualifying Exam: GRE Minimum Exam Score: GPA or Equivalent: English Proficiency: Research Competency: Clinical Internship:   Work Experience Volunteer Experience Publications Experience Foreign Language Requirement Other Requirements   Cost Per Credit Hour: $   Tuition:   Financial Aid Offered:       # of Students Enrolled Full Time:   # of Students Enrolled Part Time:   Average GPA:   Average Test Scores:   Charge Per Credit:   Annual Full Time Avg Institution Tuition:   Financial Aid Offered:   Average Work Experience:   Specializations:   # of Terms Per Year: Semester  Placement Percentage:   Historically Black:   Religious Affiliation:
