Director’s Welcome

At New York University, our unique Bioethics program covers a broad conception of bioethics and what the world needs to confront the many ethical issues that arise in today’s world. We know that bioethics challenges are not confined within particular borders; that few, if any, programs can approach the array of resources at NYU and New York City; and, perhaps most importantly, that such an endeavor requires smart, talented, and dedicated students like you. By studying at NYU, you are choosing to be part of a ground-breaking academic model for bioethics education. We invite you to join us and take advantage of the network of opportunities and experiences that make NYU and New York City such a rich place to study. In so doing, I think you will find yourself challenged, inspired, and equipped with the skills you will need to lead initiatives that confront today’s complex bioethical problems.
