Qualifikationsziele

The course will provide insight into both traditional Business Ethics as well as Digital Ethics.

Students will understand to which extent values of society/government and of business are related to each other. We will look at different times in history as well as different cultures of our times.

Furthermore students will understand the impact of digitalization on ethics.

After having attended the course, students will be able to recognize issues of ethical importance in the very moment they will be exposed to them. This will enable them to react immediately in the appropriate way. Given the students will not make relevant ethical mistakes, they will always be in the position to refuse to be blackmailed.
