The medical programmes of the two institutions are distinctive in terms curriculum framework, teaching approach, and topic selection, and common challenges include implementation of bioethics courses, students' resistance to bioethics, and limited teaching capacity, emerged as they evolve. Nonetheless, many teachers who are involved in bioethics curriculum in medical programmes were either philosophers, ethicists, or scientists with limited experience in medicine, or clinicians with inadequate formal training in ethics (Ekmekci 2016; Sim et al. The topic-oriented approach in the pre-clinical year entails a teaching goal to (1) observe inter-dependence between medicines and ethics, (2) acquire bioethics knowledge and language, (3) recognise vital ethical issues in medical practice, and (4) apply reasoning skills when present in a dilemma. ./cache/cord-034317-bhzctz87.txt ./txt/cord-034317-bhzctz87.txt
