- Center for Ethics, University of
Tartu (Estonia) – Interdisciplinary Research Training Group “Ethics in
Science and Society”; Spokesperson: Prof. Dr. Margit Sutrop
- Ethiek Institute, University of Utrecht (Netherlands) – Netherlands School for Research in Practical Philosophy; Spokesperson: Prof.
Dr. Marcus Düwell; Study Program:
“Netherlands
School for Research in Practical Philosophy (NSRPP) offers: (a) to PhD
candidates in ethics, a programme of training, and embedment of their research
in a broad network of researchers, (b) and to researchers in ethics, a forum
for joint research and study activities. In addition NSRPP seeks (1) to improve
the quality of Dutch research in ethics; (2) to stimulate cooperation, and (3) to
enhance international visibility of Dutch work in ethics.
NSRPP
sees research in the field of fundamental ethics as inseparably linked with
that in the area of applied ethics. On the one hand ethical concepts, theories
and methods constitute the basis for work in applied ethics and, as such, are
relevant to actual political and social discussions. On the other hand issues
in the area of applied ethics give rise to (re)new(ed) fundamental reflection
on concepts, theories and methods in fundamental ethics.
NSRPP
considers it necessary that in both fundamental and applied ethical research
links are established with relevant special sciences (jurisprudence, political
and social science, moral psychology, neuro and cognitive sciences, biomedical
sciences, etc.).”
- Interdepartmental Research
Center, University of Tübingen (Germany) – Graduate School Bioethics; Spokesperson:
Prof. Dr. phil. Eve-Marie Engels; Study Program:
“The
academic program includes a structured graduate training in interdisciplinary
bioethics, which has proven itself in the first phase of the graduate school.
In the second and third phase of the international focus has been strengthened.
The events will be held, depending on the context in English or German, where
all members are expected to dominate passive College German. Per
"generation" of Doctoral Student/inn/en, the program is designed for
4 semesters.”
- Johns Hopkins Berman
Institute of Bioethics (United States) – Ph.D. in Bioethics and Health
Policy; Spokesperson: Prof. Nancy Kass, Dr. Holly A. Taylor; Study
Program:
“The
Johns Hopkins PhD training offered in Bioethics and Health Policy is
distinguished from other bioethics training programs in two ways:
1. It focuses on bioethics as it relates to questions in public health and
health policy (rather than, for example, medical ethics). Thus students
consider ethical issues in population health practice, research, and policy,
examining questions in domestic and international research ethics, genetic
screening policy, HIV screening, and social justice/resource allocation.
2. Our program provides rigorous training in empirical research methods. By the
end of their training, students in this program are prepared to provide not
only normative recommendations regarding ethics and public health policy but
also to function as independent researchers conducting empirical bioethics
research related to public health and health policy.
Bioethics
and Health Policy is a track within the Department of Health Policy and
Management, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. The Bioethics and
Health Policy track is designed for students who want bioethics to be the
distinguishing characteristic of their careers in public health. Students
complete the Departmental core requirements, including courses in health
policy, epidemiology, and biostatistics. Specifically for this track, students
also are required to complete coursework in bioethics, moral philosophy, and
public health law. These requirements are satisfied, in part, through the
Department of Philosophy of the Johns Hopkins University and the Kennedy
Institute of Ethics at Georgetown University.
Original
doctoral research conducted by students focuses on analyzing empirical
information (primary or secondary data) about specific areas of public health
or health policy and examining the ethical implications of their findings. Students
are required to have a theoretical ethics chapter in their dissertations in
addition to the other chapters traditionally required.”
- University of Crete (Greece) – Joint graduate Programme “Bioethics” (JGP); Spokesperson: Stavroula Tsinorema; Study
Program:
“The
Joint graduate Programme “Bioethics” (JGP) is the outcome of the joint academic
effort of the Department of Philosophy and Social Studies, the Department of
Medicine, Department of Biology and the Department of Sociology, of the
University of Crete (UC), Greece. It is staffed by 20 faculty members from the
above Departments and 20 from other Greek and European Universities and
research institutions.
It
has been in existence since the academic year 2003-2004. It is the only
graduate Programme in Bioethics in Greece, and since its establishment it has
been receiving EU funding.
The
JGP offers Masters and Doctoral Degrees. Students with First Degrees from Greek
or accredited foreign Universities are eligible to apply. Students are required
to complete the MA in four (minimum) to six (maximum) semesters and the Ph.D.
in six (minimum) to twelve (maximum) semesters.
The
M.A. programme consists of coursework and research. The curriculum is divided
into two types of courses: Compulsory and Electives (24 credit units). Courses
are normally taught by weekly seminar. Each course is examined by one or two
term-papers, to be submitted at the end of the term in which the course is
taught. Only occasionally, a written exam at the end of the term may be
required. In addition, students have to successfully complete, under
supervision, a Masters thesis (25.000-30.000 words), which attracts 6 credit
units. The total number of credits constituting the programme is 30. Its
structure is interdisciplinary. Emphasis is given on the philosophical
foundations of Bioethics, the bio-medical scientific background as well as its
sociological and political dimensions, while a significant part of students’
training focuses on methods of moral reasoning in medical decision- making and
health care policy.
In
addition, students are required to attend workshops, experts seminars and
lectures conducted by internationally renowned scholars in the special fields
of Bioethics.
At
the PhD level, students are advised by individual members of staff. They
complete a thesis under the supervision of a three-member committee, while a
seven-member committee conducts their final public viva voce, in conformity
with the standards laid down in the Greek law.”
- University of Zurich (Switzerland) – Ph.D. Program "Biomedical Ethics and Law"; Spokespersons: Prof.
Dr. Nicola Biller-Andorno; Study Program:
“During
the last decades, developments in biomedical sciences have challenged social
norms, ethical and legal boundaries. Cloning, end of life decisions, embryonic
stem cell research, assisted reproductive technologies are only some of the
issues that have triggered ongoing political, philosophical, and legal debates.
There is an increasing need for experts in biomedical ethics and law who can
adequately address the emerging issues at the national and international level.
The PhD Program in Biomedical Ethics and Law (PhD BmEL) aims to provide
qualified participants with the opportunity to acquire such expertise.
In
particular the PhD BmEL’s goals are to: deepen participants’ understanding of
global issues in biomedical ethics and law, equip participants with the
methodological tools used in bioethics and law to approach ethical dilemmas
that arise in biomedicine and health care, provide the intellectual environment
as well as guidance that will allow participants to design and implement their
own research project and provide opportunities for students to interact with a
network of experts in the field of biomedical ethics and law
The
program is for medical doctors, lawyers and other qualified participants with
an interest in pursuing research in biomedical ethics and law. Students can be
admitted through the Faculty of Medicine or the Faculty of Law. They may follow
one of the two distinct tracks with concentration either on biomedical ethics
or law.”
- School
of Law, University of Manchester (United Kingdom) – Doctoral Programme
(PhD) in Bioethics and Medical Jurisprudence; Spokesperson: Professor John
Harris; Study Program:
“This
is a PhD by research programme, with required taught courses. All elements of the
programme serve the preparation of a doctoral thesis, referred to here as the
Structured Doctoral Thesis. The programme starts with taught elements – lecture
courses and seminars – which provide the students with a solid knowledge base
and homogeneous theoretical and methodological framework for the research and
writing tasks. The progress of the research will then be closely monitored in
research seminar courses, presentations, and supervisory meetings. Since this
is a PhD programme, independent research and writing, relentlessly supervised,
forms the main part of the studies.”
