About this course

Understanding Business Ethics for your Newlane credit.

What is Business Ethics?

Business Ethics studies how people should make decisions in business when legal rules, company goals, and moral responsibilities do not always point in the same direction. It looks at questions such as fair treatment at work, honest advertising, corporate responsibility, consumer rights, and how businesses affect society and the environment.

How the course teaches you

Business Ethics (Business 211) is a 3-credit course with video-based study, quizzes, an assignment, and a final exam. The grading is 20% quizzes, 30% assignment, and 50% final exam, so you need to show steady progress and then demonstrate mastery at the end. When the course is completed and the transcript is sent to Newlane University, it is recognized as Social & Behavioral Science GE.

How it helps beyond the classroom

At Newlane, this credit can help fill a general-education requirement in programs such as the Associate of Arts in Liberal Arts or the Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy. The course content on workplace ethics, CSR, and the law-ethics connection is useful in roles where you need to make careful decisions and explain them clearly. Because Newlane is competency-based and allows up to 75% of degree credit from transfer, a course like this can move you forward without taking up room in your degree plan for the wrong requirement.

Taking this course toward Newlane

After you finish Business Ethics, the transcript is sent to Newlane University for review. Newlane's registrar applies the course as Social & Behavioral Science GE, which means it satisfies a general-education slot in the degree plan rather than leaving you to use a higher-value course for that requirement. That matters in Newlane's competency-based model, where every transfer credit can help you stay within the 90-credit transfer ceiling and still keep progress aligned with the remaining degree requirements. In programs such as the Associate of Arts in Liberal Arts or the Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy, this can simplify planning because the credit already has a defined GE home at Newlane.

Who this course is for

This course is a good fit if you want a Newlane credit that counts as Social & Behavioral Science GE and you are building toward a degree with transfer in mind. It can work well for students who are close to finishing, changing fields, or trying to keep costs down, since Newlane accepts up to 90 transfer credits and up to 75% of a degree may come from transfer. It is not the best choice if you need a course for a major-specific business requirement, because Newlane applies it as general education rather than a business core course.
