Ethical and moral behaviour in business and society has come into much greater prominence at the beginning of the 21 st century. More specifically, the ever increasing use of information and communications technologies (ICT) has raised a wide variety of ethical issues specific to these technologies. This paper describes the development and delivery of a required Applied Ethics in ICT course in a large hybrid business and ICT undergraduate degree program. It demonstrates that such a course can be delivered effectively with a high level of student engagement, and produces changes in student awareness and attitudes, despite their limited workplace experience.
