and ethicalresponsibility" as one of its required student outcomes.1 There are different approaches todealing with ethical or moral issues. One approach to ethical issues is based on virtues, that is, totake as a reference the moral qualities engineers should have, such as honesty, compassion,respectfulness, etc. Each decision is judged against these qualities or virtues. The decision thatseems to be most in line with the relevant moral virtue(s) is considered to be the best decision,even if it means that certain rules are broken with negative consequences. These approaches canbe found in the ethical codes of professional engineering organizations such as the IEEE Code ofEthics.2 Another approach is based on consequences,3 which requires an

project proposals and the specific subsystem(s) or tasks that need help fromDeVry Brazil team are prepared by DeVry US team and presented to our partner at DeVryBrazil. Then, a search is initiated to find qualified advisors and EE students who are interestedin joining the team to develop the project. This process may take one to two months. Typically,the teams consist of 3-4 students, including one project manager, at the DeVry US campus and 2-3 students at the DeVry Brazil campus; the number of students will vary depending on thecomplexity of the project. In addition, each site has a faculty advisor and a project coordinator.The student project manager responsibilities includes coordinating the project teams (includingthe remote team(s
