BUS 621 - Business Law and Ethics (3)

In order to manage and lead in organizations that support the common good, one must embrace how decisions can be made in an ethically and legally responsible fashion. This course invites students to engage in the examination of the broader social purpose of business and the ethical and legal responsibilities that businesses owe to a variety of stakeholders, including employees, suppliers, customers, local communities, and equity investors. The course explores issues such as corporate social responsibility; ethical requirements of the market; professional roles and obligations in the areas of finance and accounting; confidentiality, fairness, and honesty in business; conflicts of interest; and the ethical problems facing global business. This course provides the analytic tools and examples to help students refine their ability to analyze and effectively respond to ethical and legal challenges and obligations in business.
