Abstract
This paper explores the need to reposition ethics in our university curriculum as a way of fighting corruption which has become endemic in the Nigerian society. This study sought to find out the perception of lecturers of universities for integrating ethics and value education into our higher education courses. Two research questions and two hypotheses guided the study. The instrument for data collection is a 15 item questionnaire administered on 210 lecturers. The data was analyzed using simple percentages while the hypotheses were tested at 0.5 level of significance. The results from the study showed that lecturers’ perception on integrating ethical education into other aspects of the curriculum may not help to fight corruption. The implications of the findings includes the need to organize seminars for the lecturers to update them on the values of using ethics and value education to fight corruption. Recommendations were made.
