The complex interaction of ethical commitments on both a personal and professional level impose significant decision-making obligations for individuals in the workplace. In an open forum and through the use of case studies and various ethical models (including social contract ethics, framing the social contract, utilitarian ethics, virtue ethics, care ethics, ethical non-objectivism, determination and free will, freedom and moral responsibility, and global ethics), this course explores a cross section of current ethical issues directly relevant to healthcare and other industries. Students examine and debate diverse theories and reflect on how they may apply these principles to their respective organizational positions and in their daily social lives.
