Ethics I

1.5 units

This course has been designed to help the student understand ethical reasoning and behavior and in so doing define their own moral compass. The primary goal being to make the student a role model to others in ethical behavior - not just in determining what is the proper ethical choice, but, more importantly, effectively implementing the behavioral changes required to achieve solutions to ethical dilemmas. To quote while paraphrasing the authors of the textbook, we strive in (these courses) not only to educate accounting students to be future leaders in the accounting profession but to stimulate (the students) ethical perception and cultivate virtue thereby awakening (their) sense of duty and obligation to the public interest.
