Ethics Minor

Ethics

The 18 hour minor in ethics offers students an opportunity for deeper study into respected ethical thinkers and how ethical theory from philosophy and religion can be used to understand our individual and social lives. Students are to choose six courses total from either of the lists below. At least one of the six must be from the philosophy list, and at least one of the six must be from the religion list. Philosophy or religion majors may double count two courses (6 credits) from their major toward the minor.

Other courses with a sufficiently ethical focus from philosophy, religion or another department may be able to count towards the minor with the approval of the ethics minor coordinator.
