Description:

An examination of how ethical and moral considerations interact with the role of business and its search for legitimacy within our society.

Changing ethical and moral standards as businesses transcend political and cultural boundaries in the global marketplace merit attention. Real-life and hypothetical case study situations are used to enhance the classroom experience. Prerequisites: BUA 110 or SOC 100 or PHI 100 or PSC 201.
