About this event
Baylor TIP Camp is primarily residential, but families may select a day camp option. Students will stay in the dorms with Resident Assistants Sunday night through Friday nights, going home Saturday morning. Course offerings will run from 9am to 4pm, and social events and activities will be held every evening. Meals are included with registration. Students who elect to commute to camp will have the option of participating in the breakfast and staying for evening activities if they choose. Students must have been admitted to Baylor TIP to enroll. Medical Ethics: Decisions at the Edge of Life, Science, and Society What should doctors do when technology can keep a body alive but a patient may never recover? Who decides how limited medical resources are distributed? How do personal values, law, and science collide in moments of life-and-death decision-making? In this course, you will explore the ethical challenges at the heart of modern medicine. Through a blend of philosophy, case studies, and guided debate, you will analyze real medical dilemmas, argue multiple perspectives, and practice ethical reasoning skills. In the process, you will learn how ethical decisions are made in hospitals, research labs, courtrooms, and policy settings. This course is ideal for students considering careers in medicine, biomedical research, public health, law, or psychology —and for anyone interested in how society decides what is right when the stakes are highest. Level: TIP Lyceum
