mindretains no active memory of the development of such a belief [30]. It is common for ourespoused beliefs to not match our behaviors [14] suggesting that the nuances of our implicitbeliefs may be missing, or there are contextual factors at play that influence one’s decision-making. Behavioral ethicists encourage individuals to create awareness in decision-makingsituations by being reflective of their choices (behavior) rather than adhering to a specific set ofvalues stipulated by themselves or others [31]. Making judgements with increased awareness canhelp individuals “make decisions that are more in line with their ethical standards” [31, p. 99].This approach to reconciliation between espoused beliefs and future actions serves as thegrounding

Others might believe that students need to have projects in more courses, whichcauses concern because little time is left for instruction of core knowledge and concepts. Othersmight

Oxford defines art as “the expression or application of humancreative skill and imagination, typically in a visual form such as painting or sculpture, producingworks to be appreciated primarily for their beauty or emotional power [1].” One might simplifyand suggest that art is a process led by the human mind that

By having students focus on solving problems that they themselves careabout, or at least identifying a problem that has a person in the middle of the system, there areincreased possible opportunities to engage in social justice, and applied ethics [10] in doingengineering work. For the purposes of accreditation, ABET has also propagated a definition forengineering design more broadly as “a process of devising a system, component, or process tomeet desired needs and specifications within constraints” [4]. Additionally additional context andinputs about the global, societal, cultural, and environmental aspects of an engineered system arenow also part of the expected student outcomes ABET delineates.ContextWe

Some examples are studiesranging from ethical concerns in psychology research [1], critiques of the underlyingphilosophical assumptions of scientific research [2]–[4], developing a framework for scientificresearch in the life sciences [5], to social and political critiques of funding practices in the STEMresearch enterprise [6]–[8]. Following these trends, scholars have explored the nature ofengineering and the cultural underpinnings that guide the field in both practice and training offuture engineers [9]–[13].

We identified how the student’s unique values and experiences, mainly related to hiswork ethic, took priority over connecting with others or engaging in departmental or universityprograms. Themes that emerged from the interview data were familiar experiences (seekinghands-on experiences), motivation for engineering degree attainment (familial expectations anddesire for job security), degree attainment resources (strong sense of self-reliance, lack ofreaching out to other sources of support), and strategic gaps (limited understanding of what anengineer does or how to get an engineering job).

(2018) highlight the fact that courses on engineering ethics areoften not widely offered. Instead, the content is usually embedded within other courses, if at all.While ABET accreditation requires that students develop “an ability to recognize ethical andprofessional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which mustconsider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societalcontexts,” additional oversight of teaching these skills is not standard (ABET 2021).
