data collected for accreditation.Methodology:ESG 201: “Learning from Engineering Disaster”, a 3 credit asynchronous online undergraduatecourse taught to both engineering and non-engineering majors by the presenter at Stony BrookUniversity for the past 12 years, has proved to be a successful method for teaching ethics as wellas the broader societal implications of engineering processes and technological design (10). Acombination of lectures, case studies, laboratory demonstrations, interviews, video site visits andteam-based collaborative analysis of engineering failures and their implications (societal,environmental, economic, legal, psychological) has proved successful in teaching the role ofengineers and engineering in society, as well as

and computer science disciplines. Additionally,ethics is an important part of education in other disciplines, including medicine and law.Movements for teaching ethics across the curriculum emerged in these fields before comparablemovements in engineering that became more common in the early 2000’s.Integration of ethics across the engineering and computer science disciplines remains isolated,with examples most common in biological and biomedical engineering. It is possible that,despite the availability of ethics workshops and other resources, many teachers of engineeringand computer science are limited in their ability to fit ethics into their classes. After all,engineering statics or circuits do not immediately present themselves as easy

is devoid ofresearch that definitively identifies the most effective pedagogical method for introducingstudents to engineering ethics” [4, p. 677]. Perhaps most tellingly, the only clear qualification forteaching engineering ethics is being “enthusiastic about and comfortable with discussing ethicalissues and the social implications of engineering” [4, p. 680]. Barry and Herkert express this lackof clarity when they conclude that “although a background and experience in philosophy andengineering might make an individual well prepared to teach engineering ethics, a well-preparedinstructor from history of science or technology, technical communications, science andtechnology studies, and so forth could be equally qualified” [4, p. 680].

2national laws and departmental cultures. Coupled to the diversity of specializations within asingle discipline, this landscape is richly complex.Explicit instruction necessarily involves more top-down organization, driven by faculty leaders[9]. Faculty leaders must obtain resources for ERC courses, workshops, and other teaching-vehicles, then assign instructional duties to faculty, and allocate resources to them. Explicitframeworks can be more coordinated, but they may decrease individual instructors' real orperceived sense of responsibility for enculturating students to professional norms. Theeffectiveness of ERC instruction will also be affected by students' perception of its importance.Explicit structures for training may lend gravitas to ERC
