Study Clinical Ethics at Otago
Overview
The Postgraduate Certificate in Health Sciences (PGCertHealSc) endorsed in Clinical Ethics provides health care professionals with ethical tools and skills that will better equip them when faced with difficult ethical situations. It will be of interest to health care professionals who are interested in reflecting upon their clinical practice and all students with an interest in clinical ethics.
The course is available part time, and can be completed at a distance. One of the core papers (BITC 405 Bioethics in Clinical Practice) will be taught in the evening.
