The MA in Bioethics is designed to give students the ethical tools they need to address pressing contemporary issues of life and health.

The program also seeks to provide students with a broad understanding of the changing face of health care, a deep appreciation for the wisdom of God in the face of bioethical challenges, and some effective strategies for engaging the bioethical issues of our day. The MA in Bioethics is designed with various groups of students in mind, including physicians and medical students seeking to develop expertise in this challenging field, nurses and other health care workers, lawyers, those with political and public policy interests in pro-life and related areas, and individuals who are preparing for a career in related college or university teaching.
