Trefnydd: Mr David James

This module aims to introduce the concept of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), and to develop an understanding of how CSR strategies are implemented in a real-world setting

Students will be required to make a financial contribution to the cost of travel and subsistence for the field trip. Numbers of registrations for the module are limited.

This module will develop an understanding of the concept of Corporate Social Responsibility to various stakeholders. This will involve dealing with the question of business ethics and what this represents. How CSR can be successfully implemented in the workplace will be examined and consideration given to the difficulties and dilemmas that such implementation can entail. The module involves a visit to an external organisation, during which emphasis will be placed upon its CSR strategies. During the field visit there will be an opportunity to relate CSR theory to its practical applications.
