Ethics is too-often relegated to a stand-alone course taken late in engineeringprograms, rather than effectively integrated into core coursework [1, 2]. Faculty sometimes haveconcerns that such integration will be challenging for students to manage or might distract themfrom core content. However, ethics-across-the-curriculum helps students understand the linkbetween the engineering work and its positive and negative impacts and also see ethicalconsiderations as part of engineering, rather than an add-on [2, 3]. In this study, therefore

Yet the language of stakeholders has permeated many areas ofengineering education; as of January 25, 2019, a search for “stakeholder” in the ASEE PEERrepository returned 2,891 hits.1 This ready update is likely partially attributable to the corporatecontext of much engineering practice, but perhaps also because it provides a concrete strategy forengineers to consider how their work is intertwined with the wellbeing of multiple others.In this paper, we investigate how and to what extent critical instruction in CSR shaped the waysin which mining and petroleum engineering students identified stakeholders and imaginedstrategies to harness engineering to benefit them.

American Society for Engineering Education, 2019 Work-in-Progress: Emotion and Intuition in Engineering Students’ Ethical Decision-making and Implications for Engineering Ethics EducationAbstractRecent research in moral psychology suggests that people often rely on emotion and intuition tomake moral judgments, rather than reasoning, which engineering ethics education has mainlyfocused on. In parallel with such findings, studies in the scholarship of engineering ethics haveemphasized the importance of emotional capacities of engineers and considered how toincorporate emotional factors into the ethics education of engineering students. Despite growinginterest in the importance of emotional aspects of engineering ethics education, however

Many engineering graduate students become leaders of research groups orindustry projects after finishing their education. While many institutions train their graduatestudents in research and professional ethics, such training tends to focus on students’ individualconduct. To date, few programs have explicitly sought to improve graduate engineering

American Society for Engineering Education, 2019 Behavioral Ethics and Engineers: Factors Affecting Decision Making in Cases Involving Risk and Public SafetyAbstractTraditional approaches for infusing ethics into engineering curricula emphasize a Rationalistmodel. In this approach, student learning is focused on understanding and recognizing ethicalissues and developing better reasoning skills. To guide ethical decision making, students practicedetermining facts, clarifying concepts, identifying relevant ethical principles, and weighingevidence. While developing better reasoning skills is critical, research suggests that a person’sjudgement is also affected by a host of social and psychological factors occurring throughout
