Full Description
This exam focuses on the ethical considerations surrounding genetic engineering, particularly its impact on human life and dignity. Students will engage with foundational ethical theories relevant to genetic manipulation and examine cases that highlight moral dilemmas.
Understanding genetic engineering's implications is critical given its profound influence on healthcare, reproductive rights, and the definition of what it means to be human. Scholarly discourse in this area can guide policy-making and ethical standards in both medical and research contexts.
The exam will assess the student's ability to articulate their understanding of ethical principles through verbal discussion, including their ability to analyze specific case studies and theories. Topics will include utilitarianism, deontology, and virtue ethics as they pertain to genetic engineering.
Demonstrating competence in articulating these concepts requires robust comprehension, allowing students to contribute meaningfully to ongoing ethical debates.
