This isbecause case studies have a way to bring abstract concepts (philosophical ethics) into thepractical realm: actual or made-up cases that involve engineers. But there are good ways to usecase studies and then there are bad ways to use them. In this presentation, I hope to make somemodest recommendations regarding what goes into using case

THREE KINDS OF ETHICS FOR THREE KINDS OF ENGINEERINGIntroductionAuthentic discussion of the nature and ethics of the engineering enterprisedemands contextual considerations. Yet, we engineers typically take contextas an add-on, often as a feature we are forced to address. The social contextof engineering, for example, can be reduced to strategies for compliancewith FCC or EPA regulations. Context is marginalized and seldom givenvoice by the contemporary engineering enterprise. But, context is world,and engineering is inherently and fundamentally an in-the-world enterprise.The impetus to drive the engineering enterprise comes from the world andthe products of the enterprise are let loose into the world
