BIO 6330 Project Management in Biotechnology

This course addresses bioethical issues associated with cutting-edge medical science and new developments in biotechnology. Modern medical science has launched an age of medical miracles, resulting in the highest average life expectancy in recorded history. However, in this new era, we must deal with issues and dilemmas that were non-existent a generation ago; the Pandora’s box of issues might be vexing at best, and devastating at worst. The discipline of bioethics provides tools for addressing these issues in the context of the individual, our communities, our society and the world.
