The research method was descriptive survey and the statistical population consisted of 273 Islamic Azad University of Qom BA students who passed the Islamic ethics course in the second semester at 1393-1394. The research findings showed that 1. The needs considered in defining the objectives of the Islamic ethics course at universities cover the individual and social needs of an Islamic community to an average degree and the objectives and needs considered in this course slightly overlap. 2. Teaching and learning methods used in teaching Islamic ethics are not very consistent with the course objectives in cognitive, emotional and behavioral levels. 3. Evaluation methods used for assessing the student's progress in Islamic ethics are not in line with the objectives of the course at the cognitive, emotional and behavioral levels. 4. Students’ access to the objectives of the course at the cognitive, emotional and behavioral levels is not satisfactory; it is concluded from the results that increasing the efficacy of the Islamic ethics course at universities requires a syllabus based on a realistic need analysis, an integrative problem-oriented and goal-oriented approach and the upgradation of the professional skills of the lecturers.
