The Impact of Business Ethics Education on Attitudes Toward Corporate Ethics of BCom. Accounting Students at the University of Zululand

Abstract

Corporate Ethics have been the focus of attention in recent years. This is predominantly due to the prevalence of corporate scandals and abundance of unethical behaviour portrayed by prominent individuals. The need for ethical leaders in business is undisputed, but how this can be achieved is more difficult to determine. This study seeks to assess the impact of business ethics education on students’ attitudes toward corporate ethics.
