Master Social Ethics in Healthcare

Four Graduates Celebrated

As part of this year's summer festival and graduation ceremony of Faculty 07 at Goethe University Frankfurt, the graduates of the Master's programme Social Ethics in Healthcare were also formally celebrated. The programme is pleased to congratulate four graduates on the successful completion of their studies.

The following graduates were honoured:

  • Christina Fischer-Echanove
  • Sabrina Liedtke
  • Franziska Max
  • Michelle Winter

Through their successful completion of the programme, the graduates have not only demonstrated their expertise in the fields of healthcare, ethics and society, but have also engaged intensively with current social and ethical challenges in healthcare.

Special congratulations go to Franziska Max, who received the award for the best Master's thesis across the entire Faculty 07 for her thesis entitled

"Soziale Bewegungen im Bereich Gesundheit – die Frauengesundheitsbewegung und ihre Gerechtigkeitskonzeptionen unter Betrachtung mit Iris Marion Young"

Her thesis explores how social movements in healthcare develop and articulate concepts of justice and thus makes an important contribution to the socio-ethical debate on participation, recognition and justice in healthcare.

We warmly congratulate our graduates on the successful completion of their studies and wish them every success in their future professional and personal endeavours. At the same time, we are delighted that they will remain part of the network of the Master's programme Social Ethics in Healthcare.
