The Certificate in Ethics would be of particular interest to teachers, lawyers, social workers, therapists, psycho-therapists, counsellors, people who train volunteers, personnel managers, union organizers and market consultants who wish to add to existing qualifications or to acquire courses which might later be applied to a degree. Studies include the development of skills, such as assessing and evaluating ethical and moral arguments, generating principles of conduct, developing humane practices and policies, empathizing, abstracting the core from the periphery, questioning, accommodating, compromising, and self-presentation. University admission standards apply.
This certificate provides an overview for interested people who do not wish to proceed to a degree or those who have already obtained a degree with a major other than Philosophy. Only under exceptional circumstances and with special permission from the department will applicants who are majoring in Philosophy or already have a degree with a major (or combined major) in Philosophy be admitted.
