4.00 Credits
Lecture, four hours; discussion, two hours; outside study, six hours. As bridge connecting biomedicine with engineering professionals, bioengineers face ethical challenges of both and from those resulting from conflicts between motivation to use most promising technology and motivation to protect patients and research subjects. They also face ethical challenges in jurisprudence, not only in using patent law, but in testifying for court cases that require bioengineering input, and as teachers when they explain their professional activities to others. Introduction to scope of bioengineering profession ethics, with emphasis on medical, research, and engineering ethics due to case reports being plentiful in these areas. Letter grading.
