Jobs in Bioethics

Our alumni have pursued a variety of careers after graduating from the program. Some find work in research ethics (e.g. as a Research Ethics Coordinator), in a hospital (e.g. as a Clinical Ethicist, a Care Coordinator), while others pursue academic research (e.g. at a research center or institute). Others have gone on to work in the government (e.g. Health Canada, Ministries of Health), for professional associations (e.g. Ontario Medical Association), or in the non-profit (e.g. for disease charities) or private sector (e.g. law firms, pharmaceutical companies). Many also pursue further studies (e.g. a PhD, med school, law school) or continue their career (e.g. in health care, law), but with a new skill set.

Some places that regularly post jobs in Bioethics include this page on the Hasting’s Center website, this page updated by the Canadian Bioethics Society, this page from the American Journal of Bioethics, and this page on jobs in research ethics, maintained by CAREB-ACCER .
