teaching with engineers and scientists has been geared towards encouraging them to think about the broader social, ethical and political dimensions of their research and training.Dr. Michael R. Caplan, Arizona State University Michael Caplan earned his undergraduate degrees from The University of Texas at Austin and his PhD from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Following post-doctoral research at Duke University Medical Center in Cell Biology, Michael joined the faculty of Arizona State University in 2003, and he is now an Associate Professor in Biomedical Engineering. Dr. Caplan’s research focuses on molecular cooperativity in drug targeting, bio-sensing, and cell sig- naling. Current projects align along

For instance, the first canon of theAmerican Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) code of ethics was updated in 1996 to includesustainable development3. ASCE’s Body of Knowledge4 recommends that upon completion of anundergraduate degree, engineers should have knowledge and comprehension of sustainability, andunderstand applications of sustainability.In 1996, ABET revised its accreditation criteria from being a set of detailed prescriptiveguidelines to focusing more on student outcomes in attaining certain technical and professionalskills5.

Empowerment can take different dimensions, and there are nobounds to what it looks like. The crux of empowerment is its result, not its process.Why empower stakeholders to develop a shared vision for change?Stakeholder empowerment is not a strategy to eliminate resistance, although it may have thateffect. Its real goal is to preempt ethical issues in a change process. In an age when “most of thecurrent ethical frameworks for organizations, as well as in society
