Alternatively, if the level in a suction drum that feeds a pump drops too low, thenthe operator in the field can go to that vessel and actually hear the pump cavitating. Similarly,leaks and spills can be simulated in the ITS and students experience the consequences ofemergency response techniques to mitigate these upsets without the danger involved inperforming similar drills in the real plant.As the integration of 3D-immersive training systems becomes more popular, the integration ofthese systems into the chemical engineering curriculum seems a natural move.

Besides the pedagogical approach, various curriculum models forengineering ethics education have been discussed, including stand-alone ethics course and across-the-curriculum models [11]. Bielefeldt and her colleagues [3] showed that the most commonsetting where ethics is taught is senior capstone design classes, according to chemical engineeringfaculty members. However, even though the stand-alone ethics course is a common form ofteaching ethics, Ocone [21] argued that introduction of ethics throughout the whole curriculumwould be necessary, because an integration approach has the advantage of integrating ethical issuesinto
