The possible impact of university corruption on customers ethical standards

Abstract

This article explores the rapidly rising incidence of corruption and fraud in universities, whether by students or staff. It asks whether companies are prepared for the extent to which their future customers or employees may have been socialised into unethical patterns of behaviour, and outlines an agenda for students to enable them to identify whether they are getting fair value for money and to determine how they should respond in situations where they are not. © 2011 Macmillan Publishers Ltd.
