ABSTRACT

This study aims to examine how the bioethics education works out in the universities. Especially focusing on the case of Daegu University, <Bioethics in the age of Human Cloning> had been operated as a selective course in the liberal arts since 2004, which has been changed into the title of <Bioethics and the Movies> in 2006. From 2005, <Bioethics> for Molecular Biology Students was added. When the lectures run this course, they choose and use the movies relating the bioethical issues so that the students can easily understand what is the main point of each themes and develop the community spirit through group activities. Because bioethics can be the last stronghold in the university where the humanities are hanging at the critical moment, it should be a compulsory course, not a selective one. Also for the bright future of bioethics in the universities, it is urgently needed to develop the professionals and encourage the intermediators to product the diverse educational supplements that help bioethics education be ease and interesting.
