Paper ID #33204Chemical Engineers’ Experiences of Ethics in the Health Products IndustryMs. Dayoung Kim, Purdue University at West Lafayette Dayoung Kim is a Ph.D. Candidate in Engineering Education at Purdue University. Her current research interest centers on engineering ethics and social responsibility, and she is specifically interested in cul- tural influences on engineers’ moral formation. She earned her B.S. in Chemical Engineering at Yonsei University (Seoul, South Korea) in 2017 and M.S. in Chemical Engineering at Purdue University (West Lafayette, USA) in 2021.Dr. Alison J.

Faculty may feel they show care through rigor, by holding ahigh standard and providing critical feedback to prepare students for harsh work environments.Students, especially from groups underrepresented in engineering, may interpret this stance asinformation indicating that they do

introduction to work done by professional chemicalengineers, the resources available to help them be successful at KU, the curricular requirementsand expectations of chemical engineering students, and possible career opportunities; 2) anintroduction to engineering ethics, basic safety considerations, teamwork, and technical writing;and 3) an introduction to basic material and energy balances and fluid flow. This course was theonly chemical engineering course the students took during the freshman year. While teaching the first semester sophomore Material and Energy Balance course between2009 and 2012, students often remarked that the freshman class was boring and that they still didnot understand what chemical engineers did. Based on this feedback
Chemical Engineering within the School of Engi- neering & Technology, Dr. Dua worked as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Chemistry at Hampden-Sydney College, where he taught and supervised undergraduates on clinically translated re- search projects. He has been an active leader in promoting STEM fields and has chaired several scientific and ethics sessions at national conferences. His current research focuses on improving or finding solutions for the musculoskeletal system disorders that still exist clinically through biomimetics, chemical, and tis- sue engineering approaches. Dr. Dua’s research has been funded by several organizations, including the National Science Foundation (NSF

industrial partners such asACUA (Atlantic County Utilities Authority), and ExxonMobil. Figure 1 illustrates ourundergraduate curriculum and highlights the clinic programs in purple borders. The first year andsophomore year engineering clinics focus on fundamental engineering skills and include diversetopics such as creative and scientific writing, technical presentation, convergent thinking,problem-solving, product development, ethics, engineering design, and statistics. For theJunior/Senior year the students choose their discipline-specific clinics depending on theircuriosity and area of interest Building on the foundation of PSE and Design Thinking, theProcess Dynamics & Control course and the two elective courses: Process Optimization
Figure 5 - average or “overall” engineering identity [15, Figs. 2, 5]. The authors reference the engineering identity as an ‘average’ in place of “overall” engineering identity. Instrument and interview (Kate & Dan) convergences: From the interviews, we found some student-reported experiences aligned with what was reported in the literature. Both participants identify an engineer as having a hard work ethic. This hard- working identity is reinforced by the high score of performance/competence on the engineering identity instrument. As reported by Godwin and Lee [15], a high score for this measure indicates having strong performance/competence beliefs or the self-beliefs to perform well and understand concepts in
