In fact, the title of the course, “Engineering a Catastrophe”, explicitlydid not mention ethics to appeal to the widest audience. This seminar was described as exploringboth the engineering and cultural implications of recent and historical disasters with examplestaken from: natural (such as levee failures and earthquake damage), engineering (nuclear powergeneration and aerospace), and conflict (terrorism) tragedies. Students were prepared that theywould learn and discuss which factors led to these cataclysmic evens and how engineeringdevelopment, public policy, and society have responded.
