Their findings were that students who had taken more Science, Technology,Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) or health sciences courses posted lower end of yearethical growth. This might be caused by a lack of emphasis on ethical considerations in STEMand health sciences courses. The study concluded that students’ ethical growth was highest whenthey participated in activities that expose them to multiple viewpoints and different perspectivesof ethical issues.Trice measured engineering students’ pre- and post-ethics course ethical levels and found thatethics education, especially one that is geared for

c American Society for Engineering Education, 2014 Ethical Concerns of Unmanned and Autonomous Systems in Engineering ProgramsAbstract:Unmanned systems are entering educational curricula (both K–12 and post-secondary) becausethey capture student interest, provide multidisciplinary engineering opportunities, anddemonstrate many tangible science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM)concepts. In collegiate engineering programs, unmanned systems are used both within thecurriculum (e.g. capstone design projects) and as part of co-curricular/extra-curricular activities(e.g. the Associate for Unmanned Vehicle Systems International (AUVSI)’s student designcompetitions).
