BIOENG 280 - Ethical and Social Issues in Translational Medicine
Course Title
Ethical and Social Issues in Translational Medicine
Course Description
This class is designed to introduce MTM students to their professional responsibilities as engineers and translational scientists. By the end of it, students will have experience communicating their ideas appropriately and effectively to their peers, their superiors, and those whom they manage or mentor. We will also discuss methods for having a successful graduate school experience - choosing and working on a project and preparing to meet post-graduate goals. Finally, some of the ethical challenges likely to be met by a working bioengineer will be explored. While this syllabus is meant to be an accurate description of the course and its content, it may be modified at the instructor's discretion.
