Applied Ethics

Applied ethics, housed by the philosophy program, is an interdisciplinary minor that provides students with a robust training in ethical issues in medicine, business, technology, politics, law, the environment, and other areas. This minor is designed for students concerned with ethical issues in their chosen major or intended career, especially those who wish to work on regulation, policy, and professional standards within their field or profession. The minor is a valuable supplement to a variety of undergraduate majors.
