What will I learn?

Students interested in both bioethics and philosophy that wish to write a dissertation on bioethics from a philosophical perspective should consider the joint Ph.D. in Philosophy and Bioethics, offered by the Gnaegi Center for Health Care Ethics and the Department of Philosophy. Unlike a dual degree, this program offers one degree: a Ph.D. in Philosophy and Bioethics.The degree consists of 66 credits: 24 credits in health care ethics, 30 credits in philosophy and 12 dissertation research hours. Pre-comprehensive exam coursework can usually be completed in three years (nine credit hours each fall and spring). Non-coursework requirements include three research tools requirements in Library Database Skills, Medical Terminology, and Statistics and Study Design, and written and oral comprehensive exams.Duration- 4 YrsCredits - 66
