and students designing to learn. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2019 Ethical Reasoning in First-Year Engineering DesignAbstractPurpose. 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

Those that did not have the spirit of accommodationwere uncomfortable but, faced with the prospect of getting entrapped in an even biggermoral dilemma, they ended up seeking a reasonable outcome.

attitudes also have broad implications inengineering such as design bias [4], algorithmic bias [5, 6], hiring/management bias [7], as wellas other types of workplace bias [8]. These ethically and economically relevant topics to allfields of engineering can be difficult to integrate into courses that are already laden with contentand technical skill development [9]. On the other hand, students find stand-alone ethics trainingless relevant to their field [10]. The most common method for balancing these opposites isintegrating a module into an engineering design course that uses a case study approach. Thetopics covered are canonical (i.e. Space Shuttle Discovery O-rings) and are almost alwaysassociated with ethical behavior in regards to job
