Participants displayed high concern for human welfare and safety butneeded more education and training to understand the importance of being socially responsiblescientists and engineers. To address this, the authors recommend incorporating a formalcurriculum to facilitate students' understanding and articulation of their views on socialresponsibility in science and engineering research. The authors provide suggested case studiesfor engineering educators to incorporate social responsibility topics into their curriculum,enabling students to learn and debate the ethical and social implications of their research,promoting critical

First-Year StudentsIntroductionDiscussion of engineering curriculum development often focuses on technical knowledge andskills needed to prepare students to design engineering solutions. However, the context in whichthese solutions are applied is important as indicated in the first cannon in the National Society ofProfessional Engineers (NSPE) Code of Ethics which states that "engineers shall hold paramountthe safety, health, and welfare of the public" [1]. The focus on preparing students for thetechnical demands of engineering design may lead to them not fully appreciating the societalimpact of engineering solutions. Cech [2] studied the evolution of the interest of students inpublic welfare issues, such as ethical responsibilities

may argue that in engineering, perhaps the same principles are discussed using differentterminology, for example, engineering ethics. It is true that most engineering programs have somecoverage of engineering ethics either as a stand-alone course or as content that is integrated withdesign projects and design activities in design-focused courses. This is a fair argument that needsto be explored further.Design Justice principles and a code of ethics are both frameworks for guiding designpractice, but they have some key differences. A code of ethics is a set of principles orguidelines that outline what is considered ethical behavior within a specific profession. Inthe field of design, a code of ethics may outline how designers should conduct

Recent research hasshown that student interest and commitment to social responsibility declines as students’progress through their academic career [2] [17]. Furthermore, although the majority ofengineering curriculum includes considerable and meaningful ethics education, it often excludesdiscussion and connection to larger societal issues and social justice content [18].The importance of social justice has been echoed by many engineering organizations,corporations, and businesses through their mission statements, core values, diversitycommitments, and strategic initiatives.

. Engineering solutions candisproportionately impact—benefit or harm—certain populations. This differential impact cutsalong class and race lines, raising important ethical questions for engineers as they address thecriteria and constraints of stakeholders. As youth engage with engineering activities andcurricula, it is important that they consider these elements. The emergent field of engineering forsocial justice urges that decision-making related to engineering designs and solutions considertechnical, social, environmental, and ethical contexts (Claris & Riley, 2003; Leydens & Lucena,2018; Lucena, 2013; Nieusma & Riley, 2010; Riley, 2008).

The survey was distributed via snowball sampling, withinitial distribution at the American Institute of Chemical Engineers’ annual meeting in 2022 andvia social media. Faculty response data was analyzed to identify trends across the three differentresponse types. Across the survey responses, there was agreement on the high level ofimportance of four learning outcomes: design experiment, compare to theory, analyze data, andcommunication. While the learning outcome of ethics was rated as significantly important for alaboratory course, many faculty did not include this in their ranking of the top five learningoutcomes or their open

One of the main goals of enforcing a P.E. license is to ensureengineering graduates follow ethical responsibility to protect public health, safety, and welfare.Currently, every state regulates the practice of engineering to ensure public safety by grantingonly Professional Engineers (PEs) the authority to sign and seal engineering plans and offer theirservices to the public [10].Historical data to regulate engineering practices in the United States dates back to the early1900s when the state of Wyoming established licensing requirements in 1907 [10].

Many engineering courses have well defined content and donot greatly vary from university to university. For example, many required, discipline-specific,junior-level civil engineering courses focus on the content covered in that discipline on theFundamentals of Engineering (FE) exam. Additionally, engineering faculty preparation oftencomes in their specialty
