ACOM 301 - Ethics

This course is designed to assist students in approaching, questioning, and refining their moral commitments and values, their understanding of the reasoned application of ethical principles, and, ultimately, their ethical practice in both their personal and professional lives. The course draws on the works of Plato, Aristotle, Rousseau, Kant and others to introduce students to the foundations of the ethical tradition. Critical thinking and its expression are central to the course.
