Transportation Seminar: Ethics in the Workplace

SURTC director Jill Hough will be presenting a seminar on Ethics in the Workplace for UGPTI's Transportation Seminar Series. There seems to be a growing number of scandals all over the globe and in the United States. Some argue there is an increased need for teaching ethics in our educational system as well as a need for improved ethics in the workplace.  What is ethics? Is ethics merely the difference between right and wrong or good and bad? What issues should be considered in ethical decision making? Various decision making tests exist for ethics and will be examined during this seminar. The seminar will be held Nov. 8, 2011 at 2:00 p.m. in Room 422 of the IACC building on the campus of North Dakota State University. Shortly after the conclusion of the seminar, links to the presentation and a recording of the presentation will be posted online on the Transportation Seminar Series website.
