Significado de la ética profesional : el caso de estudiantes de ciencias empresariales

2019 , Scalzo, Germán , Galbán-Lozano, Sara-Elvira , Ortega-Barba, Claudia-Fabiola

Este trabajo de corte cualitativo tiene como objetivo mostrar los significados y experiencias de estudiantes de las áreas de ciencias económicas y empresariales en torno a la ética profesional, la cual por su misma naturaleza, no tiene como fin el mero conocimiento sino su aplicación práctica, en donde actúan los aprendizajes internalizados, como modelos para la acción. Dentro de los hallazgos más significativos se encontró que los estudiantes valoran la formación ética que les ofrece la universidad como complemento de su formación técnica, sin embargo, consideran necesario el uso de estrategias innovadoras para su enseñanza. Los significados que muestran sobre la ética van desde lo personal hasta lo profesional pasando por lo social, resaltando el carácter relacional de la misma. © 2019 Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia.
