There are three subdivisions of moral philosophy:

Deontology, which argues that decisions should be made considering the factors of one's duties and other's rights. Most famous of Immanuel Kant. See the related link.

Consequentialism (Teleology) argues that the morality of an action is contingent on the action's outcome or result. Consequentialist theories differ in that which they consider valuable. Most famous: the Utilitarianism by Jeremy Bentham and John Stuart Mill. See the related link.

And Virtue ethics, advocated by Aristotle, which focuses on the inherent character of a person rather than on specific actions. See the related link.

See the final link for Normative ethics.
