The Week 3 and Week 5 assignments are considered major assignments, which combined are worth almost half of the total course points. It will likely take you more than one week to complete the Week 3 and Week 5 major assignments, so begin working on those tasks sooner rather than later.
Project Summary:
As a course project, you will select a multinational company that previously experienced or is currently experiencing controversial issues related to CSR and ethics. At a minimum, the company should have some information on its CSR available, such as an annual report that discusses CSR. If you have difficulty selecting a company, consider businesses in industries that are viewed in a negative manner for their products or business practices, such as fast-food, tobacco, and automobile manufacturers. You may not use Walmart or Nike. In Weeks 3 and 5, you will assess the companys CSR and ethical issues and apply the information you have learned in the weekly assignments along with research to the issues identified. In Week 5, you will revise the work from Weeks 1 and 3 and combine the parts with the research from Week 5 to create a comprehensive final paper.
