ES1.3 Major ethical models.

In order to understand the basis for personal and professional responsibility, students need to learn about several major ethical models that can be used to evaluate alternatives and aid in decision-making. Ethical models developed by philosophers such as Bentham's Utilitarianism, Kant's Moral Imperative, and Rawles' negotiation of social contracts have been effectively used to provide a formal basis for discussion of ethical dilemmas.
