Center for Ethics

The Center for Ethics is committed to providing outstanding ethics programming, healthcare ethics education and community outreach. The Center touches more community organizations for its size than any other unit at Emory. Our faculty provide expert guidance at the local, national, and international levels. Their recent achievements include guiding Emory’s COVID triage policies and serving as the ethics advisor to the CDC’s Advisory Council for Immunization Practices. We foster public discussion and experiential learning through community engagement activities and outreach.  

Ethics and the Arts: The Ethics & the Arts program at Emory encourages ethical discourse and debate through and about the arts, and it partners with signature arts organizations to demonstrate the way art challenges our perspectives. Your support will fund our monthly Ethics at the Movies programming and Ethics on the Stage talk backs, along with support for student enrichment activities.  

Master of Arts in Bioethics (MAB) Program: The Master of Arts in Bioethics program provides rigorous, advanced, interdisciplinary study in bioethics for professionals and students interested in the social and ethical challenges facing medicine and the life sciences. Given Emory's status as a leading research and teaching university, graduates of Emory’s Masters in Bioethics program will be trained to help to advance the national conversation on important issues influencing public policy, scholarship, practice, and education in the field. Your support will fund scholarships, allow conference attendance for students and keep our graduates leading the way! 

Friends of the Center for Ethics: This is our unrestricted fund to support the Center. The flexibility these dollars represent, allows us to fund the most immediate needs of the Center including faculty research, projects and programs not covered in any other specific fund.
