Students are starting from a baseline of application-oriented ethics and are thereby in a position to identify morally relevant problems in healthcare, and subsequently communicate and assess. They can question their own moral and ethical attitude, reflect and position themselves whereby they are able to independently create solutions and /or develop strategies interactively, justify, and represent in discourse.

By means of elementary texts, practical examples and projects, terms, relevant concepts, different language and levels of reflection, as well as the goals and limitations of applied ethics in the field of healthcare are dealt with: a) responsibility, equity, welfare and care ethics. b) Ethical decision-making and management through collaborative solving of ethical dilemmas in ethics teams.
