PHL 250 - Special Topics in Ethics

3 credits
An introduction to the study of ethical theories and systems. In this course, the student will study a variety of ethical systems (e.g., virtue, utilitarianism, deontological) and then examine case studies of situations wherein ethical dilemmas arise. In the course of examining these ethical dilemmas, students will apply a variety of ethical theories to the situations and determine the outcomes (choices) accordingly. Some semesters may entail a discipline-specific focus in the case studies used (e.g., nursing, human services.) This course is not repeatable for credit. [AS NEEDED] Three hours per week.
