A team of International Business Ethics students proudly represented Curtin at the 2025 Ethics Olympiad, tackling some of today’s most complex moral questions alongside teams from Australia, New Zealand and the USA.

The competition encourages students to develop critical thinking, collaboration and communication skills as they work together to reason through challenging ethical cases. The Curtin team – the first from a business school to take part – received an honourable mention from the judges for their impressive performance.

A big thank you to Dr Jorge Mendonca (Ethics Olympiad Support, Faculty of Business and Law) for his expert coaching, Dr Luisa Campos (Lecturer, School of Management and Marketing) for encouraging her students to get involved, and Dr Jacqueline Boaks (Senior Lecturer, Curtin Centre for Applied Ethics) for bringing it all together.
