At the heart of this course is the question of how to conduct a robust scientific inquiry. You will learn the theoretical, conceptual and methodological issues underlying a good academic research conducted to guide business practice as well as extend existing body of knowledge.

The Christian Ethics and Leadership course seeks to equip learners with the ethical foundations, principles, and practices essential for Christian leaders who aspire to embody integrity and spiritual maturity in professional business environments. It examines the relevance and substance of ethical thought and action from a Christian perspective, offering a deep exploration of how different worldviews give rise to contrasting moral values and visions.

By understanding these diverse ethical landscapes, learners will gain insight into the inner conflicts they may face when striving to live in accordance with Christian teachings. The course sets out specific issues that Christians need to confront and these are discussed in light of biblical teaching and practice. Through a biblical lens, it addresses specific ethical issues that Christian leaders must navigate in their professional lives.

Ultimately, this course encourages learners to develop the wisdom, courage, and decisiveness needed to make responsible and faithful ethical choices, fostering leadership that reflects Christian values in every aspect of life.

The subject is intended to enable the student appreciate the fundamental processes of handling of civil matters. The learning outcomes are set out in the reading list.
