BU 6013 - Business Ethics (3)

This course examines the basic ethical issues involved in the conduct of business from a biblical perspective. The course will promote critical thinking about business as a social, ethical, moral and spiritual activity. Students will consider the juxtaposition of Christianity and commerce and the role of character in ethical decision-making and behavior. Students will be introduced to successful Christian business leaders who will be used extensively in guest-lecture formats. A goal of the course is to encourage and facilitate ethical leadership through a practical study of ethics, as applied to business, health care and nonprofit environments and to enhance the student’s ability to make responsible ethical decisions. Note: This course is changing to a 2-hour version over the 2016-2017 academic year. The last time this course will be taught for 3-credit hours is Fall 2016.
