processes are always high and at stake. Thus, an engineer’s responsibility on livingup to the ethical standards and conduct have extensive risk. In this regard, educating the future engineeringworkforce (educational policy making) and establishing effective up-to-date policy making in theoperational aspects of engineering profession (professional policy making) are two important pillars ofsustaining the knowledge and practice of ethics in engineering profession.Regarding the professional policy making, US National Society of Professional Engineers (NSPE)establishes the code(s) of ethics for professional engineering guidance and compliance [3]. NSPE requiresengineers to perform under a standard of professional behavior that requires adherence to the

While the state licensure bodies monitor the professional conduct of the engineers,professional engineering bodies like National Society of Professional Engineers (NSPE) andAmerican Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) insist and expect their members to have goodmoral character and ethical integrity (NSPE, 2016; ASCE, 2012).However, the ethical contact and the professionalism of an engineer do not start with theengineer’s first assignment as a graduate engineer, but with what this individual learns inclassrooms as an engineering student and how s|he gets trained as an engineering intern.

Options given for ethnic origin wereCaucasian, African American, Hispanic/Latino, Mixed Race, American Indian/Alaskan Native,Black African, Asian, and Indian/S. Asian. Given the relatively small number of responses fromethnicities other than Caucasian, we combined all other ethnicities into a single variable.Respondents were given an open-ended question regarding major or work category. In theanalysis, “STEM” was interpreted to include all majors/job categories in mathematics andengineering, and sciences such as physics, chemistry and biology, but not social sciences.

For instance, AAC&U’s College Learning for theNew Global Century notes that such experiences offer “rich opportunities for connectingknowledge with choices and action” [14, p. 36]. However, as Beatrice’s and Palano’s experiencedemonstrates, students may have “had the experience but missed the meaning” [15, p. 151,quoting T. S. Eliot’s Four Quartets].

reason to believe thatprefrontal cortex is not fully developed until at least age 25, calling further into question thevalue of undergraduate classroom assignments aimed at improving ethical judgments (e.g.,Aamodt & Wang 2008).25 In general there is reason for hope, as some assessment instrumentshave shown growth from educational interventions. We turn to this topic of assessment next.In terms of assessing how students perceive ethical and moral situations, one of the mostwidely-used instruments for measuring students’ ethical or moral reasoning is the DefiningIssues Test 2 (DIT-2),26,27 that was developed in the 1970’s and takes as its basis Kohlberg’sMoral Development Theory.28 The DIT-2 is administered by evaluating participant
-valence emotions to positive-valence emotions. Traditional moral emotions discussed in the previous section appeared in ourdata (e.g., anger, disgust, guilt, pride), but students also used other expressions to describeemotions they experienced. Emotional expressions could be classified into three broad themes:subsequent negative emotions, anticipatory negative emotions, and positive emotions. Thiscategorization was influenced by Pekrun [30]’s classification of achievement emotions. Pekrunclassified achievement emotions in academic settings into activity emotions and outcomeemotions and divided the outcome emotions into prospective/anticipatory emotions andretrospective emotions based on the time at which the emotions are experienced.

current political system [17]. While locus of control has been studied extensively since the 1980’s, there is no generalconsensus as to the correlation between the locus of control and ethical decision-making. Studieshave shown no correlation between the two constructs, while others have reported that aninternal locus of control is positively correlated to ethical decision-making [10],[14]. An internallocus of control means that the individual feels they are in control of a given behavior [16].While not indicative of ethical behavior, the perception of being in control when faced with anethical dilemma may positively correlate to ethical decision-making and ethical awareness.

organizations often tend to amplify the moral and political values that are lacking and need to be further enhanced in developing contexts. They view technologies as instruments for well-being rather than profits.As engineering educators who are interested in preparing future engineers for the increasinglyglobalized future, we need to be careful about what kind(s) of “global engineers” we are training.Emphasizing one or two approaches to engineering ethics over others represents an incompleteapproach that fails to project an appropriately comprehensive view of global engineering practice.Obviously, we are not training every student to become a professional engineer working in amultinational business company, nor do we expect that
