As a healthcare ethics student, you will explore topics such as decision-making capacity, surrogate decision-making, beneficence and health justice, alongside the philosophical, religious and cultural perspectives that shape attitudes toward ethical issues in healthcare. Upon graduation, you may build a career in a variety of sectors, including healthcare ethics consultation, hospital administration, healthcare policy, NGO work or academic research, where you will apply your knowledge to real-world ethical dilemmas in the healthcare field. The program is also the perfect leaping-off point for graduates to pursue a Ph.D. in healthcare ethics.
