Professors may describe the importance of taking theFundamentals of Engineering exam before students graduate as the first step towards the goal oflicensure, but then describe how licensure is not useful to professors. As a result, engineeringstudents may receive

, manufacturing, and post-manufacturing stages of a product. The importance of engineering ethics to a practicing engineer are discussed. A comprehensive approach to product safety is taught including the influences of designers, manufacturers, sales and marketing personnel, executives, regulators, consumers, and the use environment. The need for effective and consistent information, instructions, and marketing messaging for a product is stressed. Students will study the role of compliance with standards and regulations as well as the failure of standards developers to keep standards current.1 For its first offering, the course, ME EN 5960/6960 “Special Topics,” was offered as a joint product

There is also evidence that programmaticorientations (e.g., entrepreneurship, business, and community engagement) affect students’ethical perceptions and decision-making [16]. In addition, research on a service-learning designprogram found that a human-centered approach utilized in that program helped students orient toethical considerations, motives, and decisions, yet the students tended to narrowly focus onethical concerns linked to interactions with users while struggling to explicitly see the salience ofethics for their day-to-day design work [17].Previous research continues to reveal novel insights about engineering students’ understandingsof ethics and social

Cultivating and Sustaining Departmental Transformation In the intervention and research design, we adopt Jamieson and Lohmann’s [3] research topractice cycle. This project provides the potential for departmental and institutionaltransformation, specifically because (i) numerous key stakeholders of departmental andinstitutional changes are key project personnel, (ii) these stakeholders will have an explicit andintegral project role, and (iii) each will have opportunities to share best practices, perspectives,and insights.

The paper is theresult of early steps in the implementation of a longer-term, NSF-funded research project thatextends the inquiry to the development of students’ understanding of ethics over the entire arc oftheir undergraduate educational experience [1].Our argument unfolds in five steps. In the section that follows this introduction, we situate ourinquiry within the broader field of engineering ethics research, connecting in particular to workon “macroethics” [2] as it intersects with scholarly work in our primary fields of science andtechnology studies (STS) and engineering studies.

Still other recent efforts suggest growing awareness for howengineering students’ pre-college experiences may impact their further ethical development. TheStudent Engineering Ethical Development (SEED) survey, for instance, was developed to“explore connections between the ethics education experiences of engineering undergraduatesand their ethical
