I would very much appreciate that you let me know whenever a link is not working. Comments on form or content are welcome.

Course links

• SYLLABUS(Chapter 1). Note that the schedule is subject to changes.
• ASSIGNMENTS AND COURSE NOTES
• Guidelines for Exams
• LINKS OF INTEREST:
  I could try to compile a list of links that relate to our topics, but there is really no need, because there already exists a great website on which you can find course notes, bibliographies, videos, cases studies etc. It is the Ethics Updates, maintained by Prof. Hinman.
  For a more historically minded class on ethics, you can look into Prof. Cavalier's Online Guide to Ethics and Moral Philosophy
