Abstract: What is taught in Universities? And, specifically, what is taught in Business Schools? What kind of future CEOs and managers are being educated? These questions have been asked at the academic international level after many corporate scandals and leadership failures have come out in the last few years. Consequently, it is a priority to promote a deeply reflection about the role of Business Schools in the students' education. Our aim is to outline the importance of the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and its possible integration in the new Business Studies, adapted to the new European Higher Education Area (EHEA). The present study reveals the results of an exploratory analysis about Ethics and CSR courses in Spanish Universities, focusing particularly on Business Schools. Our proposal is that Business Schools should require at least one compulsory Ethics and CSR course in the curriculum. In addition, this effort should be complemented by other initiatives.
