本課程的目標在透過對主要倫理派別及其主要代表人物倫理思想的講述，輔以相關原典的閱讀，以使學生在了解各家倫理學思想的同時，也能逐步建立獨自閱讀哲學原典的能力。另外，透過對當前社會所面臨的一些與倫理學相關的重大爭議課題的討論，讓學生能夠更清楚地知道，倫理學並不只是一門學問，它還是一項活生生在我們眼前上演，影響著我們生活的重大任務。The goal of this course is to introduce the ethical thoughts of the main ethical schools and their main representatives, supplemented by the reading of relevant original texts, so that students can not only understand the ethical thoughts of each school, but also gradually build the ability to read the original philosophical texts independently. . In addition, through the discussion of some major ethics-related controversial issues faced by the current society, students can understand more clearly that ethics is not just a subject, it is also a living thing that is performed before our eyes and affects us. The great tasks of life.
倫理學不但探討善惡的本質、行為的正當性、責任意識、道德或倫理價值的規範等，而且也探討人性、研究道德行為的可能性等問題。由於倫理學探討行為的正當性，它可以為吾人的日常生活提供指導原則。不管吾人在現實生活上追求甚麼，但此種追求不能離開「善」。在這個意義上，希臘人曾將倫理學視為人生哲學。即使從現代的觀點來說，倫理學仍是任何人生哲學的理論基礎。因為無論權力、財富、知識、地位等，一旦離開「善」，便失去其價值。
倫理學因問題性質的不同，主要可劃分為規範倫理學、後設倫理學、及應用倫理學三部份。講授倫理學將先從引論入門，然後涉及倫理學的主要學派及其基本論點的介紹。接著是有計劃地分別從規範倫理學、後設倫理學及應用倫理學，選擇其中最具代表性及最具時代意義的理論來講授。
此外也將對儒家的倫理思想作介紹，提供中西哲學「比較研究」的一個途徑。
Ethics not only explores the nature of good and evil, the legitimacy of behavior, sense of responsibility, norms of moral or ethical values, etc., but also explores issues such as human nature and the possibility of moral behavior. Because ethics deals with the legitimacy of actions, it can provide guiding principles for our daily lives. No matter what we pursue in real life, this pursuit cannot be separated from "goodness". In this sense, the Greeks regarded ethics as a philosophy of life. Even from a modern point of view, ethics remains the theoretical foundation of any philosophy of life. Because no matter power, wealth, knowledge, status, etc., once they are separated from "goodness", they lose their value.
Ethics can be mainly divided into three parts: normative ethics, meta-ethics, and applied ethics due to different natures of issues. Teaching ethics will start with an introduction, and then cover the main schools of ethics and their basic arguments. Next, we will systematically select the most representative and contemporary theories from normative ethics, meta-ethics, and applied ethics to teach.
In addition, Confucian ethical thought will be introduced, providing a way for "comparative research" on Chinese and Western philosophy.
