The Health Care Law and Bioethics program explores fundamental topics such as medical malpractice, healthcare regulations, biomedical ethics, population health, reproductive rights, biotech law, and disability advocacy. Graduates develop expertise applicable to various professional paths in these interconnected fields.
UC Davis School of Law emphasizes hands-on legal training through judicial externships that build crucial writing, research, and negotiation abilities for healthcare law practice. Competitive moot court programs further develop litigation and advocacy techniques. Students can also join numerous campus organizations or contribute to academic publications - the law school supports about 40 student groups and five research journals.
Given their interdisciplinary nature, Health Care Law and Bioethics courses welcome UC Davis medical students and public health graduate candidates. This creates valuable opportunities for cross-disciplinary learning and perspective-sharing among diverse academic backgrounds. The school's speaker series and Sacramento location provide additional access to leading healthcare law and bioethics authorities.
