About
The Center on Ethics at San Jose State University is committed to the comprehensive
exploration, both scholarly and applied, of ethical and socially responsible practices
represented on the campus of San Jose State University and within Bay Area educational,

History
Founded in 1987, the Center on Ethics is a non-profit organization devoted to the
study of business and professional ethics, and matters of social responsibility. Since
its inception, the Center has sponsored lectures that address current business, social,
political, and health care issues. The Center is inter-disciplinary and encourages
and supports research by faculty, students, and practitioners on issues of social
responsibility broadly, and professional and business ethics more specifically. In
addition, the Center has sponsored conferences on selected topics, established a working
paper series, and provided training and workshop seminars on topical issues in social
responsibility.
