Modiwl BSX-3149:
Animal Ethics and Welfare

Ffeithiau’r Modiwl

Rhedir gan School of Natural Sciences

20.000 Credydau neu 10.000 Credyd ECTS

Semester2

Trefnydd: Dr Katherine Jones

Amcanion cyffredinol

The module aims to critically debate and discuss the ethics of the use of animals in science and captive environments, and evaluate methods to assess and improve animal welfare.

Cynnwys cwrs

This module considers both moral and scientific arguments for how humans treat animals in a range of contexts (e.g. keeping of animals in captivity, use of animals in science).

The module begins by considering the field of welfare science, the problem of defining welfare and different methods for measuring an animals welfare.

Students are then introduced to key questions in ethics, such as whether death is a harm and whether any animals are due moral consideration. Utilitarian, contractarian, rights-based views and environmental and relational arguments are contrasted in a range of scenarios to consider how best to resolve ethical dilemmas such as whether animals are kept in captivity. Since these questions are embedded into societal views on animal ethics, students are asked to identify an ethical dilemma and write an engaging article aimed at a popular audience.

The final part of the module considers ethical review of scientific experiments (facilitated by practical sessions discussing captive animals and experimentation with scientists, zoo researchers or technicians, as appropriate). Using the frame-work of the 3R's and ethical theories presented previously, students will be asked to suggest improvements to experimental design and evaluate the study from several different ethical viewpoints.

Lecture

Lectures in this module are designed to be a distilled “rough guide” to the key concepts in the field, and provide a “theme” for the weeks study.

Workshop

Throughout the module workshops will be provided to facilitate assessment and encourage student-led learning. The aim of workshops is to aid independent study (some preparation is normally required in advance) and to build confidence with debating ethics and critically evaluating welfare science. Some workshops will be linked to reflective questions to ensure students consolidate their learning.

Typical preparation time for the workshops is 1-3 hours private study.
