Engineering Ethics

you can build a house so many different ways. So, knowing the right way to do it is often difficult because everyone has their own preference. Each client has their own preference. They all like it a different way, so it’s hard to know where we can allow the client’s preferences take over, or where we put our foot down and say, “No, this is the way it has to be done.” It’s really difficult knowing what to do sometimes.As the preceding account suggests, Beatrice’s remarks reflect an interesting dichotomy. On theone hand, she speaks to her company’s high standards and notes a lack of ethical dilemmas. Onthe other hand, she gives multiple examples where difficult structural design decisions dependheavily on

Scanning can beused to create life-sized 3D models that include realistic colors and textures. However, thescanner we had access to, the Sense 2 from 3D Systems, struggled to retain tracking on the flatsurfaces of the tablet components. The resolution produced by the scanner was also lacking.When 3D scanning was unsuccessful, we pivoted to photogrammetry.

Although the rationale for developing engineering judgment inundergraduate students is the complexity they will face in professional practice, engineeringeducators often considerably reduce the complexity of the problems students face. Student workintended to train engineering judgment often prescribes goals and objectives, and demands a one-time decision, product, or solution that faculty or instructors evaluate. The evaluation processmight not contain formal methods for foregrounding feedback from experience or reflecting onhow the problem or decision emerges; thus, the loop from decision to upstream cognitiveprocesses might not be closed. Consequently, in this paper, our exploration of engineeringjudgment is guided by the
