Alternately, it could serve as a way to demonstrate the knowledge andexperience required to allow someone to switch from a career in a completely different field intoinformation technology and cybersecurity.The suggested completion plan for the certificate is: • CSCI 603 – Defensive Network Security • CSCI 604 – Ethical Hacking • CSCI 609 – Cybersecurity Law and Policy • One additional courseThere are a number of options for the final course.

Ethics education has been correlated with increased measures of socialresponsibility, and greater student ranking of the importance of ethics relative to fundamentaltechnical skills [7]. The case studies allow reflection on and discussion of ethics, economics,stakeholders, and impact of engineering projects; while providing a richer context for learningengineering math and science fundamentals. The term “case study” as used in this paper refersto an exercise that contains elements of “inquiry-based learning”, “guided discovery learning”,“problem-based learning”, and “case-based learning” [5].

Therefore, it is important for institutions to define what constitutes cheating tostudents. In general, it is believed that students who cheat in college are more likely to shoplift,cheat in income taxes, abuse harmful substances, and engage in un-ethical behavior in theworkspace. Students that cheat in high school also do it in college [1].Among the different disciplines, Business and Engineering students are among the most likely

Designprojects in the first year have been shown to develop empathy and to help students developan emotional understanding of stakeholders’ interests [18]. In our view, empathy requires anddictates an ethical approach to design, as the potential risks and rewards for all conceivablestakeholders must be considered.

demonstration. The connection between the quote and the text drawn comes from the role ethics play in science. The quote comes as Victor has realized the consequences of animating his creation. Ethics are important when researching in science because there are things that should not be done. There has to be boundaries for research so that whatever is being researched is used for the right reasons. Atomic technology is a perfect example of a double edged sword. On one hand, atomic energy is clean, medicines using radioactive markers are extremely useful in research, and may be useful in making discoveries in astronomy. However, the original research had a much more violent use. By splitting an atom to create a nuclear chain

on Undergraduate Research, undergraduate research is defined as “aninquiry or investigation conducted by an undergraduate student that makes an originalintellectual or creative contribution to the discipline [1].” As stated in literature, undergraduateswho conduct research show improvements in thinking independently, thinking critically, puttingideas together, solving problems, analyzing data, analyzing literature, interpreting researchfindings, conducting ethical research, writing and communicating [2-9]. Literature also assertsthat it is rare for students to have enough opportunity to gain higher-order thinking skills fromtheir undergraduate research experiences [10].Students involved in undergraduate research also report outcomes that may

students to determine if these perceptions could beused to enhance Veteran retention in engineering. Social responsibility is embodied in theEngineer’s Creed and is directly related to engineering ethics [10], so much so that theengineering accrediting agency ABET requires that graduates can approach their work in asocially responsible manner [11]. The principles of social responsibility are what attract manystudents to engineering, specifically those from underrepresented groups [12]. Matusovich et al.[13] and Mehaffy [14] identified the need to incorporate students’ personal values, such as socialresponsibility, into the engineering curriculum to allow them to personally connect with theirengineering identity and thereby increase retention.
