Provides a comprehensive introduction to business ethics through theory, application, and contemporary case analysis. Beginning with foundational concepts, students examine ethical theories and decision-making frameworks before exploring stakeholder theory, corporate governance, and global ethical challenges. Subsequent units address diversity and inclusion, marketing ethics, environmental sustainability, and the ethical implications of technology and data. Real-world cases, debates, and simulations are used throughout to develop critical thinking and practical skills. Applied group case presentations, an individual final paper on a topic selected by the student, and an ethics crisis simulation, prepare students to navigate ethical challenges in professional business contexts.
