Brief Descriptions with Course Codes

Course Framework & Foundational Bioethics

• HSCI 705 Course Syllabus: The primary governance document for HSCI 705, detailing doctoral research requirements, worldview integration rubrics, presentation styles, and assignment due dates.

• HSCI 705 Discussion 1 - Foundations of Bioethics and Moral Frameworks: An advanced analytical forum in HSCI 705 examining classical ethical frameworks—such as principlism, utilitarianism, deontology, and virtue ethics—and how they apply to modern clinical care dilemmas.

• HSCI 705 Case Study 1 - Informed Consent and Autonomy: A scenario-based application paper in HSCI 705 diving into the legal and moral requirements of patient disclosure, decision-making competency, proxy consent, and the absolute right to refuse medical care.

Clinical Care Barriers & Patient Protections

• HSCI 705 Discussion 2 - Patient Privacy, Confidentiality, and HIPAA: A policy analysis discussion in HSCI 705 mapping out the boundaries of patient confidentiality, electronic medical record security, and legal exceptions to non-disclosure rules when public safety is threatened.

• HSCI 705 Case Study 2 - End-of-Life Decisions and Palliative Care: A clinical ethics critique assignment in HSCI 705 evaluating advanced directives, Do Not Resuscitate (DNR) protocols, physician-assisted dying, and the moral line between letting a patient die versus active euthanasia.

Research Standards & Technological Frontiers

• HSCI 705 Discussion 3 - Ethics in Human Subjects Research: A regulatory investigation workshop in HSCI 705 reviewing historical research violations, Institutional Review Board (IRB) functions, vulnerable population safeguards, and the guidelines of the Declaration of Helsinki.

• HSCI 705 Discussion 4 - Genetic Engineering and Reproductive Technologies: A forward-looking technology seminar in HSCI 705 analyzing the bioethical dilemmas of CRISPR gene editing, cloning, assisted reproductive procedures, and the commercialization of human biological materials.

Systemic Justice & Macro-Allocation

• HSCI 705 Case Study 3 - Resource Allocation and Justice in Healthcare: A macro-ethics analysis paper in HSCI 705 assessing the distribution of scarce medical goods, triage criteria during public crises, organ transplant waitlists, and conflicting theories of social justice.

• HSCI 705 Discussion 5 - Global Health Disparities and Infectious Disease Ethics: An international public health forum in HSCI 705 exploring vaccine distribution ethics, quarantine mandates vs. individual liberties, and corporate duties to underserved regions.

Doctoral Research Pipeline & Summative Exam

• HSCI 705 Ethical Position Paper Draft: A major research milestone in HSCI 705 where doctoral students outline a complex health science issue, compile empirical literature, and construct a structured draft defending a distinct moral stance.

• HSCI 705 Final Ethical Position Paper: The definitive written capstone project for HSCI 705, presenting a highly rigorous, thoroughly cited publication-quality manuscript that integrates advanced bioethical analysis with corporate or public health leadership application.

• HSCI 705 Week 8 Final Exam: The comprehensive terminal evaluation for HSCI 705 at Liberty University, confirming absolute doctoral mastery over clinical bioethics, systemic justice metrics, institutional research compliance, and landmark legal cases in health science.
