Arts and Sciences Students: Approved for your Global and Cultural Diversity Credit. Engineering Students: Approved for your Humanities Credit.
This one week 3-credit intensive course will be held in Paris, France (five days) in collaboration with Case and the University of Paris. Students will interact with faculty from the departments of bioethics at both the University of Paris (LEM Renee Descartes, No.5) and CWRU. This class will afford students a unique opportunity to gain an intercultural perspective on biomedical ethics. The aim of this week is to introduce the students to several ethical issues from the perspective of French Bioethics. The course includes lecture components from American and French faculty, as well as field visits to French medical centers and guided cultural experiences that reflect the history of French medicine. At the end of each day, students will meet with the Case course instructors to review the day’s material and events. Ultimately, the goal of the course will be to help students understand the social, cultural and political context in which these issues are addressed in France and compare it to that of the United States.
