Sažetak
Within the University of Sarajevo, there are two theological faculties, the Faculty of
Islamic Studies and the Faculty of Catholic Theology. For a long time, neither one of these
institutions was a constituent of the University since they only existed under the umbrella
of religious institutions. Nevertheless, students at these faculties study both theological and
secular modules. It is noticeable, directly or indirectly, that the study of bioethics represents
one of the most necessary contemporary segments in the educational process, especially in
theological schools. Therefore, the text explains different study programmes offered by the
Faculty of Islamic Studies in Sarajevo at all three study levels, i.e. undergraduate, master’s,
and doctoral level. Furthermore, the text also offers information on the available study
programmes at the Faculty of Catholic Theology, namely the integrated study of theology
and the master’s program Interreligious Studies and PeaceBuilding which is implemented in
cooperation with the Faculty of Islamic Studies and the Orthodox Theological Faculty Sv
Vasili Ostroški of Foča (the latter is a constituent of the University of East Sarajevo and for
that reason has not been taken into consideration in this article). It is important to note
that authors approached the bioethical issues strictly from the secular point of view, more
precisely from the field of practical philosophy, that is, its branch of ethics. Precisely for this
reason, and in order to adequately discuss bioethical topics which are secular in nature and
not religious, the authors used an interdisciplinary and multidimensional approach. However,
in accordance with the title of the article, the paper especially focuses on the modules within
which bioethical topics are studied. Accordingly, the analysis of bioethical problems was made
primarily from the philosophical (ethical) point of view, and it was based on the syllabi,
course textbooks, and additional literature. On this occasion, the bioethical publications of
teachers in these two institutions were also reflected on. Regardless of their different religious
approaches to bioethical problems, the conclusions of the paper point to the points of their
common “bioethical” interest as well as the disagreements.
