Global Health to include an AoC in Global Research Ethics Program Description
A new area of concentration in Global Research Ethics will leverage the coursework of an existing PBC of the same name. The goal of this 12-credit, six course online area of <br>concentration and PBC is to provide individuals with an understanding of the ethical and regulatory aspects of human subjects research and to provide them with the skills needed <br>to analyze ethical issues that arise in the conduct of research in domestic and international arenas. Six courses are offered during the Fall and Spring semesters (6 credits each semester) that enable students to complete the program within an academic year.
