American Society for Engineering Education, 2019 Work-in-Progress: Emotion and Intuition in Engineering Students’ Ethical Decision-making and Implications for Engineering Ethics EducationAbstractRecent research in moral psychology suggests that people often rely on emotion and intuition tomake moral judgments, rather than reasoning, which engineering ethics education has mainlyfocused on. In parallel with such findings, studies in the scholarship of engineering ethics haveemphasized the importance of emotional capacities of engineers and considered how toincorporate emotional factors into the ethics education of engineering students. Despite growinginterest in the importance of emotional aspects of engineering ethics education, however

A search in ASEE PEER for manuscripts with“reflection” in the title yielded 195 results, including 102 from papers at the annual conference in2015-2019 [10]. However, it is unclear to what extent reflection is standard practice inengineering education versus being explored as “novel”.

Many engineering graduate students become leaders of research groups orindustry projects after finishing their education. While many institutions train their graduatestudents in research and professional ethics, such training tends to focus on students’ individualconduct. To date, few programs have explicitly sought to improve graduate engineering

American Society for Engineering Education, 2019 Behavioral Ethics and Engineers: Factors Affecting Decision Making in Cases Involving Risk and Public SafetyAbstractTraditional approaches for infusing ethics into engineering curricula emphasize a Rationalistmodel. In this approach, student learning is focused on understanding and recognizing ethicalissues and developing better reasoning skills. To guide ethical decision making, students practicedetermining facts, clarifying concepts, identifying relevant ethical principles, and weighingevidence. While developing better reasoning skills is critical, research suggests that a person’sjudgement is also affected by a host of social and psychological factors occurring throughout
