Credits: 0.5

Corequisite(s): CHE 0015 (Corequisite only applies for students in the ING-BP)

Description: In this course students explore ethical dilemmas, current ethical standards and practices and their origins, and the sometimes obvious yet nuanced differences in rules and cultures across disciplines. Using case studies, narratives, and articles, the course raises and aspires to answer questions related to the responsible treatment of data, reporting scientific information, responsibilities of the peer review system, conflicts of interest, the relationship of chemistry to society, and the role of the scientist in society.
