Mandatory Ethics Requirement
One of the goals of the College of Business and Economics is to promote the development of ethically responsible students who will become future professionals in business, economics and other related fields. As responsible members of the college community, students are expected to adhere to the highest standards of academic integrity and overall ethical conduct. To ensure that all students are aware of these standards, the faculty of the college adopted a policy that mandates students fulfill the College Ethics requirement by acknowledging the College Student Code of Ethics, become familiar with the policies and practices related to academic dishonesty and plagiarism, and demonstrate competency in these areas by passing the College Ethics Quiz.
