A student from the religiously affiliated institution commented, As a biomedical engineer, everything that you do is going to affect people… If you don’t have the safety and wellbeing at the forefront of your mind, then you missed the ethical ideal.A student in Capstone Design also noted the disciplinary effect of this sense of responsibility:“being Envs [environmental engineers], we always think about being ethical and helpingsociety”This theme suggested that students recognized and internalized the role of ESI in engineering.One approach to facilitate this development in Ethics and Professional Issues at the

engineering curricula make it no less of aworthy effort. It is important to include ethics in engineering education because engineers shapethe built and digital world as we know it. Unlike many formula-driven, technical courses, ethicalthought and action require evaluating issues whose importance may change with context [4] [8].Disappointing performance on the Ethics section of the Fundamental Engineering examdemonstrates the failure of some current engineering programs to inculcate ethical thinking inthe minds of engineering students [9]. In this section, we offer a very brief overview of someimportant works and trends in the field.When engineering courses feature ethics, they typically rely on strictly philosophical orprofessional approaches to

None of the descriptions ofethical development during their extracurricular activities seemed very well scaffolded,presenting an opportunity to faculty mentors and advisors of these activities. This can range fromdirecting particular activities (e.g., bringing in a guest speaker to talk about ethical issues at aprofessional society meeting) to more informal facilitation of reflection via discussion. Helpingstudents to be focus their attention (perception) and be mindful (processing) may be particularlyhelpful in leveraging extracurricular experiences into rich opportunities for ethical development.While the alumni shared stories of extracurricular settings that they
