Research

Ethics is the theoretical discipline concerned with morality. In modern society, there is an omnipresent feeling of doubt and uncertainty regarding moral standards. Hence, we are engaged in research and teaching on the topic of ethics – via sponsored professorships, doctoral scholarships and via our own research projects.
