Course Description:
The purpose of the ethics course is to introduce the ethical theories that developed in the West and East. The theory presented is expected not only accepted as
mere knowledge, but also can be the basis for students to develop moral knowledge. All ethical theories will be discussed critically; in order the students can
recognize the strengths and weaknesses of the theories in question
General Instructional Objectives (GIO):
The Ethics course (Moral Philosophy), intends to introduce the theories of Ethics. The theory in question covers two areas of study; those are meta-ethics and
normative ethics. Given our context, the theory of ethics that would be discussed not only covers theory of ethics that initiated by the western philosophers, but also
the philosophers of the east. In addition to the above purpose, the students are also encouraged to show their critical idea to the theory provided. At the end of the
class, students are expected to have a strong ethical base concept. This is not only useful when they have to making decisions or moral action in daily life but also
related to the issues of applied ethics, namely: Ethics Politics, Medical Ethics, Business Ethics, Ethics of Environment and others).
