How and why do engineering alumni perceive that extracurricular activities during college impacted their ethical knowledge, reasoning, and/or behavior?MethodsTo answer the two research questions, this research used a mixed method approach, combiningquantitative data from survey items with qualitative information from semi-structured interviews.The research reported in this paper was embedded within a larger study [5]. This research wasreviewed by an Institutional Review Board (IRB) for human subjects research and deemedexempt (Protocol #15-0326).A survey instrument was developed to answer RQ1, using many of the best practices suggestedin [39].

Engineering Ethics

engineering students [1], ethical situations also surface inmany other settings. In our own research on engineering student perceptions of ethics and socialresponsibility, we found that many engineering interns and co-ops reported encountering ethicalissues or dilemmas in the workplace [2]. This finding counters a common perception – oftenperpetuated by the prevalence of “big disaster” case studies in engineering ethics education – thatethical issues surface relatively rarely for most technical professionals. As Kline has argued,there is a continuing need to “move beyond this concern with what might be called ‘disasterethics’ to study the ethical and social aspects of everyday engineering practice” [3, p. 14].Aligned with Kline’s recommendation, the

And it is therefore best understood from a

This suggests that it is possible that students with lowPersonal Interest scores become involved in more student organizations. BACKGROUND 3.1.Participation in Extracurricular Activities One of the most common ways for students to become engaged in their campuscommunity is to participate in ECAs. Research has demonstrated the impact of participation inthese activities on education, offering consistent and strong support for the value of studentorganizations to both student and the universities that sponsor them (see Figure 1) [10, 11, 13-24]. Participating in student organizations—a subset of ECAs-- leads to
