Abstract (English): This article analyzes the state of ethics instruction in bachelor's degrees in Journalism at spanish universities. This training is torn between its focus in a stand-alone course or its dispersion in the different subjects that make up the curriculum ("saturation method"). It is useful to know if the general tendency to reduce the humanistic content of journalism studies has affected the teaching of media ethics. For this purpose, the offer of stand-alone courses on journalistic ethics in 38 universities were analyzed through a content analysis. In a complementary way, the existence of other courses on moral philosophy was registered and the presence of contents related to ethics in the set of courses was identified through the analysis of 1749 syllabus. The results allow us to conclude that the inclusion of a specific subject on professional ethics continues to be the hegemonic method, although its content (especially in the deontological aspect rather than that relating to moral philosophy) appears transversally represented in the curricula as a whole.

Abstract (Spanish): Este artículo analiza el estado de la instrucción en ética de los grados en Periodismo de las universidades españolas. Dicha formación se debate entre su concentración en una asignatura específica o su dispersión en las diferentes materias del currículo ("método por saturación"). Cabe preguntarse si la tendencia a reducir el contenido humanístico de los estudios de Periodismo ha afectado a la enseñanza de los aspectos morales de la profesión. Para ello, a través de un análisis de contenido, se analiza la oferta de asignaturas sobre ética periodística de 38 universidades. De forma complementaria, se registra la existencia de otras asignaturas sobre filosofía moral y se identifica la presencia de contenidos relativos a la ética en el conjunto de asignaturas mediante el análisis de 1749 guías docentes. Los resultados permiten concluir que la inclusión de una asignatura específica sobre ética profesional sigue siendo el método hegemónico, aunque su contenido (más en el aspecto deontológico que en lo relativo a la filosofía moral) aparece representado de forma transversal en el conjunto de los planes de estudio.
