The amount of publication in this area which has appeared since the 1970’s and 80’s would be enough to discourage anyone attempting to formulate any reflections on the subject of education in biomedical ethics. Though it is not yet the case in every country — particularly in some of the ‘Latin’ countries of Europe — the teaching of biomedical ethics today seems to be firmly entrenched in most courses of medical training. The methods may be quite varied, yet the majority agree that a ‘training’ in ethics has its place in such courses. The Faculty of Medicine at the University of Lille has itself introduced this teaching into its programs, continuing a long tradition in the course of which humanistic ideas and deontological training were incorporated in the education of future doctors. On the basis of this experience, the following reflections are submitted for discussion. I shall not address the question whether the expression ‘professional ethics’ is cogent. I simply take it as designating the fact that there are certain situations and professional challenges which constitute occasions for people and societies to become ethically engaged. It is from this perspective that I will focus on the teaching of students in the health-care fields, bearing in mind that it would also be necessary to examine the relevance of an introduction to biomedical ethics beyond this area of focus.
