engineering students are not prepared by current pedagogies to actethically? To frame this question this paper questions how well rules-based, or deontological,ethics provides useful guidelines in the case that the domain in which decisions are made becomecomplex or when technology is changing rapidly. Given that some companies report the half-lifeof information is as short as six months [private communication], can engineering ethics alwaysprovide useful guidance to action, or are there situations where other ethical frameworks aremore appropriate?Engineering ethics is an often-discussed subject, and substantial work in engineering educationaddresses how to effectively teach ethics [1]–[3], evaluate learning outcomes [4], and identifyissues and

- Cost Brain Computer Interface TechnologiesAbstract:Advancing an interest and literacy in Science Technology Engineering and Mathematics (STEM)fields in high school students through summer and after school programs has been widelypopular since the 1990’s, and these programs are effective at improving retention and persistenceafter graduation. However, there still remains a lack of designing programs to increase interestand literacy of biomedical engineering (BME) related applications that are scalable at otherinstitutions. This is typically due to the challenges of providing costly resources that areavailable only in specific laboratory settings and require graduate level expertise to operate.
