Health care professionals and others professionally interested in medical ethics find themselves increasingly confronted with moral questions and dilemmas. Such complex issues challenge the people who have to deal with them every day. For the first time several European universities and institutes have combined their efforts in the field of bioethics by developing a master's programme that focuses on all issues currently relevant to bioethics.
