Summary:
 

This study abroad experience is aimed at business and philosophy majors interested in international business ethics. The objective is to provide students with concrete experiences of the ethical values involved and how they are addressed in the everyday practice of international business. In particular, students will reflect on how various moral quandaries in the practice of international business might be better addressed in the future. In the first half of the course, to be held at UNF, students will tackle both ethical and professional considerations involved in the execution of international business. This will include class work as well as visits to international businesses operating in northeastern Florida. In the second half of the course, to be held in Ireland, students will reflect with business persons, governmental and non-governmental officials, as well as citizens on the advantages and pitfalls of one of Europe’s most charged international economies. Every student will be expected to keep a daily journal of their experiences with a particular eye paid to the ethical dimensions of international business in Ireland, as well as complete a review of their study-abroad experience.
