leading countries in engineering education will serve as a starting point for across-national conversation about the opportunities, strategies, and best practices foreducating ethically committed global engineers. We start our analysis by reviewing the history of engineering ethics education in theUS and China. Following that, we examine major theoretical debates that illustrate thecore questions, concepts, and approaches that attract American and Chinese engineeringethicists’ attention. Next we compare some exemplar curricular and instructionalstrategies adopted by educators in each country to facilitate engineering students’ ethicslearning. Findings of this comparative study suggest that engineering ethics education in Chinaand the US

engineering students [1], ethical situations also surface inmany other settings. In our own research on engineering student perceptions of ethics and socialresponsibility, we found that many engineering interns and co-ops reported encountering ethicalissues or dilemmas in the workplace [2]. This finding counters a common perception – oftenperpetuated by the prevalence of “big disaster” case studies in engineering ethics education – thatethical issues surface relatively rarely for most technical professionals. As Kline has argued,there is a continuing need to “move beyond this concern with what might be called ‘disasterethics’ to study the ethical and social aspects of everyday engineering practice” [3, p. 14].Aligned with Kline’s recommendation, the

One goal of EDSGN 100 design projects is to introduce students to the use of an engineering design process. To this end, it is crucial for instructors to scaffold the project so that students develop a connection between the engineering design process and the activities, lessons, and modules in the course. This can include i) working from an explicit design process and ii) demanding iteration.

Findings suggest that students develop agreater appreciation for language differences, see a connectedness between their engineeringwork and societal impacts, and draw connections more readily between theories presented inclass and practical applications on site. Not surprisingly, our findings also suggest that studentsare more likely to participate in a study abroad program when their class schedules are notadversely affected and when the topic relates to their major discipline.IntroductionStudying abroad at the post-secondary level is frequently advocated for because of the manypotential benefits to student learning1,2,3,4. However, these benefits are not uniformly
