This course will be team taught by two experts in eastern and western ethics who will infuse in you a true global understanding of ethics. Foundations of Ethics will begin with the study of the philosophical theory of cultural differences. Using this heuristic as a conceptual framework, the course will undertake a close reading of seminal texts in history of western and eastern ethics. The course will culminate in an introduction to applied ethics to demonstrate how these foundational theories can be applied to specific case studies. Foundations of Ethics is a core course in the new Graduate Certificate in Leadership and Ethics program, and is open to all enrolled graduate students who have been accepted into the Siegel Institute program.
