CSCI 4321ETHICAL IMPLICATIONS OF A GLOBAL, DIVERSE, AND TECHNOLOGICAL SOCIETY

Catalog

Part of the Computer Science core. A required course for Computer Science and Computer Engineering majors that explores the social, legal and ethical issues for a global, diverse, and technological society. Our global society is ever more connected; however, ethical views are often different because of gender, racial, political, national, social, or cultural norms. In particular, the course will focus on new technologies and their costs, benefits, and issues related to an increasingly global and diverse society. Also, the course examines the role of a computer professional in the ethical development of new technologies in light of the diversity of end users. The course will offer opportunities for both written and oral presentations and professional development. Prerequisite: CSCI 2320 and successful completion of 60 or more credit hours.
