PHI 271 - Honors: Ethics Across Cultures 3 cr.


This course will allow students to explore and examine the fundamentals of the ethical systems of four major culture blocks: the western ethical worldview; the Asian ethical traditions of Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism; the Asian ethical traditions of Confucianism and Taoism; the Islamic ethical pillars. Through lectures, class discussions, student presentations, and reading of printed resources, students will learn to think critically when evaluating the different ethical emphasis, and also to see that there are universal and common ethical principles that are the fabric of all cultures. Students will understand that without ethics, there is no meaning in life. Pre and/or Corequisite: ENG 171  or the permission of the Honors Program Director.
