Content
This unit focuses on a wide range of contemporary issues in health law and bioethics. It also examines how the law responds to the ethical, legal, and social issues relevant, including existing and emerging health technologies, relevant to pre-conception, birth, throughout the life course, and end-of life decision making. In this unit students will be challenged to explore, engage and critically examine topics that are often politically controversial and publicly polarising concerning matters concerning life and death.
