COURSES
Every semester a large number of courses that have something to do with ethics are offered in departments across the College of Arts and Sciences, the College of Business and Economics, and the Rossin College of Engineering. Some of the courses have ethics as the central focus; others discuss issues with ethical dimensions or use ethics as one framework for examining issues. We'll keep track of these courses and post them here.

Minor Declaration Form
The most important personal, professional, and social questions cannot be resolved through empirical research or technological innovation alone; they require disciplined engagement with the fundamental values at stake in private and public life. Lehigh’s Minor in Ethics prepares students for this engagement, enabling them to think carefully and critically about a wide variety of controversial issues, from the use of military drones and self-driving cars to the protection of our environment and personal data; from issues of human well-being and justice (e.g. in healthcare, immigration, and the economy) to the social problems of racism, sexism, and Islamophobia. The ethical knowledge and skills students develop in Lehigh’s Minor in Ethics are personally enriching and directly contribute to good decision-making in professional and civic life.
The interdisciplinary Minor in Ethics requires a core course that provides students with a robust foundation and critical reasoning tools for identifying and addressing ethical issues and challenges. Elective courses enable student to apply the skills of ethical inquiry and reasoning to specific issues arising in a wide variety of areas and professional fields (e.g. legal, medical, business).
