Description: [Prerequisite: One previous course in Philosophy]  
Most health care ethics focuses on the individual decisions about health care, but many ethical questions have implications for society at large. The demands that individual health decisions make on the system may create collective problems, and conversely, the needs of society may limit the freedoms that individuals think they should have. Public health ethics then, lie at the intersection of medicine, political philosophy, and public policy. This course will examine the values of health, social needs, and freedom through a systematic examination of situations in which these conflicts arise.
Offered: Fall Spring Summer

Public Notes:

W versions of 200-level courses all count toward the upper-level writing requirement for the major. The course descriptions for the W versions are the same as for the standard version, the only difference being that the W version requires additional written work including a component of revision of at least one assignment.
