The nature of both Corporate Social Responsibility and Organizational Ethics involves a high level of decision making, often in a complex context and with confusing information. In this course students will be trained to reflect on ethical issues by individual assignments, lectures, group conversations, analyzing cases and presenting their view. The teaching methods rely on the students’ active participation and good preparation.
