This joint degree with a concentration in health law and bioethics provides a unique and valuable perspective on the field of bioethics through combining the philosophical study of bioethics with a legal education. Candidates usually spend the first year in law school, adding courses from the IU Department of Philosophy during the second year. In addition to the basic required law school courses, students in this program will be required to complete the requirements for the concentration in health law. The capstone project for this joint degree program will be a paper in a topic that addresses the fields of law and bioethics. This paper will satisfy both the advanced research and writing requirement at the law school and the thesis/research project in the Department of Philosophy. Up to six credits of health law courses are counted toward the 30 credits required for the MA in Philosophy. Students who complete P803 as part of the JD/MA program will also receive six credits toward the 90 credits required for the JD in Law. The two degrees are obtained with a total of 108 earned credits, as compared with the 120 credits required if the degrees are obtained separately.
