Healthcare ethics is an interdisciplinary field that exists in a globalized context,
one that engages clinical, organizational, professional and research issues related
to medicine, science, law, policy, social science and the humanities. At Duquesne
University's Center for Global Health Ethics, you’ll come together with professors
and healthcare ethics professionals to explore scenarios, issues and current events
in healthcare ethics and ask difficult questions that drive meaningful change in an
array of ethics fields in healthcare.
The center provides scholarly and professional training in healthcare ethics consistent
with the Catholic, Spiritan identity of Duquesne University, based on the university’s
liberal arts foundation. Duquesne is committed to an atmosphere that is open to diversity
to celebrate education of the mind, heart and spirit and to cultivate academic excellence,
ethically responsible judgment and social justice in a globalized context.
The center prepares you, as an emerging leader in healthcare ethics, with the relevant
skills to work in the healthcare environment and to address the challenges of today
and tomorrow collaboratively with professionals and organizations.
