Summary:

This book provides a typology of higher education ethics that infuses both cognitive and affective domains to help mitigate ethical issues in colleges and universities at the global level. The five ethical domains presented are decision ethics (with 24 ethical theories and 14 ethical decision-making processes), professional ethics, business ethics, organizational ethics, and social ethics at the national and global levels. Higher education accreditation issues are presented with a call to implement ethics committees to help provide proactive ethics programs to better educate faculty and staff in colleges and universities. Using 220 educational objectives and 16 ethical cases, as well as the Ethics Statements of the American Association of University Professors (AAUP) and the Society of Corporate Compliance and Ethics (SCCP), ethics and compliance officers, higher education administrators, higher education graduate students, and higher education student advisors are provided with specific ethical theories and ethics decision making processes to tackle ethics issues in higher education.
