10 cp
Prerequisites Nil
Teaching Organisation 2 hours per week for twelve weeks or equivalent.

This unit introduces students to practical ethical decision-making from the perspective of the Catholic moral tradition. The unit draws on the history of philosophical ethics along with examples of practical decision-making in order to enable students to develop their own response to the fundamental ethical question, How should I live? Case studies drawn from the specific context of the students professional experience and environment are examined and analysed. These cases are used as a means to engage classical contributors to the Catholic moral tradition.
