Ethics and the Opus College of Business

Business education is commonly aimed at the knowledge needed to perform effectively and efficiently in the business world. At the University of St. Thomas, we are committed to that objective and more: encouraging serious consideration and application of ethical values in business decision making.

Our goal in the Opus College of Business is to encourage moral development in the context of sound policies and practices. We affirm the legitimacy and centrality of moral values in economic decision making because without them, business relationships and strong communities are impossible.
