General Information

Overview

This advanced unit builds on the ethical and legal foundations introduced in the core units LAWS20063 Governance and Business Law and MGMT20130 Operations Management and Business Analytics. The emerging field of data science encompasses "big data" and "data analytics". In this unit you will analyse ethical considerations specific to study design, data collection methods, data analysis and the appropriate dissemination and application of findings. You will apply the ethical duties of researchers and analysts to ensure that ethical protocols have been respected and that the rights and consequences of participants and users have been acknowledged and respected. You will employ practical tools to help you to identify ethical dilemmas and develop strategies for ensuring ethical decision making and resulting behaviours. You will also examine the role of organisational and industry cultures in shaping ethical (or unethical) data analytic practices, thus addressing the United Nation's sustainability development goals with respect to responsible business operations, new business models, investment, innovation and technology and collaboration.
