students’understanding of ethical dilemmas in aerospace engineering. Macroethics is particularly relevantwithin the aerospace industry as engineers are often asked to grapple with multi-faceted issuessuch as sustainable aviation, space colonization, or the military industrial complex. Macroethicaleducation, the teaching of collective social responsibility within the engineering profession andsocietal decisions about technology, is traditionally left out of undergraduate engineeringcurricula. This lack of macroethics material leaves students underprepared to address the broaderimpacts of their discipline on society. Including macroethical content in the classroom helpsnovice engineers better understand the real implications of their work on humanity
