In the first year, ateam of junior-level students from multiple technical disciplines created a systematic method toanalyze ethics case studies in the context of engineering courses and a handbook with step-by-step instructions to aid engineering instructors in their efforts in include ethics in their course. Inthe second year, the team piloted a “joint-venture” approach to teaching ethics in engineeringwhere philosophy faculty at WPI volunteered their time and expertise in engineering courses togive a single class ethics training

. Engineering has a direct andvital impact on the quality of life for all people. Accordingly, the services provided by engineersrequire honesty, impartiality, fairness, and equity, and must be dedicated to the protection of thepublic health, safety, and welfare. Engineers must perform under a standard of professionalbehavior that requires adherence to the highest principles of ethical conduct. When a solution canbe found it is important to contribute the innovation in technology to society.Engineering as Social ExperimentThis lecture is provided to students to emphasize that engineering is an experimental process.

In the early 1970s, CSRE published thenewsletter/magazine SPARK, which emphasized the role of engineering in its social andpolitical-economic context, including especially labor relations. 11 SPARK highlighted andcriticized a range of “oppressive” applications of engineering skills and technology, withparticular attention paid to the connections between engineering and military. Instead ofworking on military projects, SPARK’s editors encouraged engineers to employ their skillstoward progressive, liberatory ends. One of the editors’ major goals was to bring

The course is also intended to helpstudents understand the importance of sustainable design and the impacts of engineering onsociety. One of the methods used to teach students about these issues included a structuredcontroversy on a proposed new water resources project in Colorado. There was also an extensivecase study analysis of Hurricane Katrina and New Orleans that spanned four weeks of the course,two lengthy written assignments, and in-class discussions.

work explores engineering ethics empirically in a “developing world” context through aframework of care ethics. Care ethics, a.k.a., the ethic(s) of care, is particularly suitable for the“developing world” context because it helps draw attention to imbalances of power (e.g.,inequality, differential opportunity, and limitations on autonomy) that are often neglected byother ethical frameworks. In this work, we selected one element of care ethics (responsibility)and operationalized it in several ways: the language of responsibility; notions of paternalism; andawareness of key, influencing stakeholders. These lenses were developed and refined iterativelyby employing them in case study analyses of two design project reports written by teams

Engineering is the foundation of our techno-human condition and deservesassessment not only in terms of manifest benefits but also in relationship to its own fragilities,threats, and global mutations.This point deserves reiteration. As Kristin Shrader-Frechette [13] has argued at length, there is apersistent tendency for technical appeals to experts and expertise to both underestimate risk.There is an equally persistent among technical experts to continue engineering technologies thatthey themselves assess as posing significant risks.
