The minor in Ethical Leadership:
- Provides students with a substantive background in the cognitive science of moral reasoning, with particular focus on the concepts most relevant to effective ethical leadership: conscience, influence, character, power, courage, justice, and the common good.
- Develops students’ moral decision making abilities through the application of ethical theory to a broad base of contemporary problems in personal, professional, and social life.
- Offers rigorous, multicultural training in the construction and critiques of historical and contemporary models of ethical leadership.
Who should enroll in the program?
- Current or prospective undergraduate students planning for or already engaged in careers in business, education, science, healthcare, law, social science, CITS, biotechnology, and humanities. In brief, all undergraduate majors can integrate and benefit from this minor.
