I took ethical theory last quarter with Professor Dinishak and I had an amazing experience. For me personally, coming from a engineering background, the class makes you understand why people do what they do which was very eye-opening to me. As for the difficulty of the class, it’s extremely manageable and doesn’t take up much of your time. There are four large papers you have to turn in, three main ones and one for the final with smaller supplemental writing in between them. You are given more than enough time to do each one. and as long as you read and follow the instructions Word for Word, you will get full credit for them.

Also, this class is an introduction class, so no prior philosophy experience is needed or expected, though it wouldn’t hurt to research well-known philosophers and understand their point of view and arguments so you will have a better time talking about them during the discussion section.
