This ethics lessonevolved from an earlier exercise on accuracy and precision in scientific measurement, which hasbeen used successfully with large and small groups of high school and college students, and aspart of professional development activities for engineers and scientists. The EnSURE studentswho completed this exercise at MSU in 2015 found the experience to be an engaging and helpfulway to explore some of the ethical considerations of data collection, and the instructor plans tocontinue offering the lesson in future EnSURE programs.

Typical assignments include the following: 1.Develop a list of preliminary readings and keywords; 2. Write and present a 1-page descriptionof the specific topic of the planned literature review; 3.

This heterogeneity,combined with the Program Director’s basis in engineering, made it more difficult for theseminar to fulfill the same role as it had with the first cohort. Furthermore, the bench sciencemajors in the second cohort already had support groups in the form of their lab groups. Thestudents who lacked this support—such as the lone African American woman in the mathematicsdepartment, a program in which students often work in solitude—were subsequently unable torely on the seminar in the same way

We are particularly interested with comparing our numerical findings through thissurvey with numerical findings about the most important skills for Ph.D.-holding engineeringgraduates in academia and industry. However, most studies look particularly at the experiencesand employer expectations of baccalaureate-level engineers entering the field. For example,Lang et al.

It also makes sense, as formerly cited researchsuggested, that academic integrity is clearly something that “cannot be imposed on students; itmust be accepted by them.”[21] The question then remains how to best accomplish thisacceptance.
