Abstract: Moral values are things held to be right or wrong or desirable or undesirable. Different cultures have very different moral value systems. Moral values, along with traditions, laws, behavior patterns, and beliefs, are the defining features of a culture. In this regard, one of the purposes of education is to teach citizens to become responsible, thoughtful and enterprising citizens. Education, thus, is a means to fostering the individual's, society's, and even humanity's future development and prosperity. A country’s societal development and the capacity to fulfill its own purposes can depend among other things upon the quality of education. This study aims at examing the impact of Civic Education on the moral values of College students. It conducts a survey to gage the moral values added on students through Civic Education. The Study considers a total of 100 students of higher learning institutions. Finally, it attempts to make recommendations based the findings obtained through the entire analysis.
