University. ©American Society for Engineering Education, 2024 Sessions on Faculty EthicsRationale for sessions on faculty ethicsAs engineering educators, we want our students to become ethical engineers when they graduate,and we devote time in the curriculum to preparing them. One aspect of being a professional inany field is having a shared set of guiding principles, and professional engineering societies allhave codes of ethics. These codes, as well as many other resources about ethical frameworks andsteps in decision making, are available for classroom discussions, and there are databases of casestudies (e.g. https://onlineethics.org/). Faculty are members of engineering professions as

operation arebecoming complex. To correctly manage uncertainties in protecting the public, it is critical totake long-term preventive measures by regulating mobility engineering practices in deliveringautonomous driving solutions. To date, the lack of licensure for all mobility engineers remainsone of the significant challenges. As we investigated NCEES exam products in the civilengineering domain, none of the exams are targeting the unique knowledge base and skillsrequirements for a mobility engineer profession. Without an effective mechanism to regulate thisemerging occupation, ethical practice and quality assurance of engineering projects could beundermined. In this study, we investigated the current educational programs, job market,requirements
