Bioethics at the Movies, Wake Forest University

A critical examination of the bioethical issues raised in selected full length feature films. The goal of this course is to increase students’ ability to think critically about complex issues, paying close attention to relevant details. This course is offered as part of the Bioethics Graduate Program, but Wake Forest offers a dual MD/MA degree and it is therefore possible for medical students to enrol. This information has been collected for the Post-Discipline Online Syllabus Database. The database explores the use of literature by schools of professional education in North America. It forms part of a larger project titled Post-Discipline: Literature, Professionalism, and the Crisis of the Humanities, led by Dr Merve Emre with the assistance of Dr Hayley G. Toth. You can find more information about the project at https://postdiscipline.english.ox.ac.uk/. Data was collected and accurate in 2021/22.
