Introduction of CAE
The Centre for Applied Ethics (CAE) , formally inaugurated on 13 May 1992, strives to stimulate critical reasoning about fundamental ethical concerns in contemporary society, to raise awareness of moral values, and to further strengthen the University's commitment to research and whole person education. The Centre actively promotes and coordinates research in the areas of bioethics, business ethics, professional ethics, and social ethics. It encourages the development of ethics across the curriculum. The Centre appoints Research Fellows from across the University who form the nucleus of its community of researchers. They conduct research in applied ethics, offer ethics courses and ethics teaching, and liaise between the Centre and the academic community inside and outside the University. |
