Mental disorders in university students are very frequent, therefore higher education institutions have established in-campus mental healthcare centres. These clinics have particular characteristics that differ from other mental health centres, as they report to and represent an educational institution, while at the same time looking after the interests and well-being of patients requesting assistance, thus generating unique bioethical conflicts. Ethics Committees are useful tools to offer support to mental health professionals in making ethical decisions. In order to respond to these issues, it was decided that an Ethics Committee would be created in the mental health clinic of a private university in Mexico City. This article describes the implementation process for this Committee, its duties and scope, as well as the case work and review methodology. A list of the most frequent ethical conflicts is attached, jointly with the ethical analysis of the cases treated throughout the year and a half or work by the Committee.

大学生心理障碍十分常见，因此高等院校纷纷设立校内心理保健中心。这些诊所具有与其他精神卫生中心不同的特点，因为它们向教育机构报告并代表教育机构，同时又照顾请求援助的患者的利益和福祉，从而产生了独特的生物伦理冲突。道德委员会是为心理健康专业人员做出道德决策提供支持的有用工具。为了应对这些问题，决定在墨西哥城一所私立大学的心理健康诊所设立道德委员会。本文介绍了该委员会的实施过程、职责和范围，以及案例工作和审查方法。附上最常见的道德冲突清单，并附上对一年半来处理的案件或委员会工作的道德分析。
