The National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network(NNIN) is an integrated collective of 14 universities with open facilities that support nanoscalescience and engineering research. The NNIN facilities train and support approximately 4,800users per year. The network offers a unique opportunity for research in societal and ethical issues(SEI) as well as providing SEI information to users. The goals of the NNIN’s SEI efforts are to:1) develop societal and ethical consciousness within the user community and the broader NSEcommunity and 2) broaden the exploration of the ethical and societal implications of NSE atNNIN and in the broader NSE community.

relative to the prevalence of preconventionalreasoning, which corresponds to self-interest and the avoidance of punishment. Although thereis scholarly debate about the merits of the DIT, among its advantages are that it is scalable andpromises a quantitative measure of the effectiveness of ethics education. Our own use of the second edition of the test (DIT-2) to compare different modes ofethics instruction at the Georgia Institute of Technology yielded troubling results: in a quasi-experimental study with pre- and post-tests and a control group, we found no statisticallysignificant change in students’ moral reasoning over a semester, even for those students whotook a full course in engineering ethics.[2] What the study did not tell

We conclude with a discussion motivating social justice as a value that allengineers can adopt, and consider how social justice might be practically operationalized inengineering ethics.To What Does the Profession of Engineering Aspire?Examinations of the social good to which the engineering profession aspires have given rise tonumerous compelling critiques. Scholars from different disciplines including engineering,philosophy and ethics, and science and technology studies have approached the issue fromdiverse angles, but in the end they tend to home in on the same general question: if the socialgood to which

. As with other disciplines, engineering typically subsumesethics, appropriating it as its own unique subfield. As a framing, ethics in engineering producesspecialized standards, codes, values, perspectives, and problems distinct to engineering thoughtand practice. These form an engineering education discourse with which engineers engage. It isepistemological in its focus, meaning that this framing constructs knowledge of properdisciplinary conduct. On the other hand, engineering in ethics as a framing device insists thatengineering become a specialized articulation of ethical thought and action. Here, “engineer” and“engineering” are not nouns but verbs, referring to particular processes and technologies fortransformation. One is not an
