knowledge in the areas regulatory affairs, and safety which are becomingmainstream capabilities for engineers. To meet the demands for a rapidly changing, technology-driven workforce, the industry and educational advisory bodies have recommended thatacademic instruction should include industry practice training2. Many programs and universitieshave accomplished industry practice training through co-operative education, industry fellowsprograms, guest lectures, capstone projects, courses co-taught with the industry, and field trips3,4. This poster describes an effort to translate some industry practices into classroomeducation. Experiential laboratory, design projects, classroom lectures or seminars can be used toinclude industry practice
Paper ID #6623Educating Engineering Students about Ethics: Experiences at Brown Univer-sity and Trinity CollegeMr. David K. Ware, David Ware worked for 36 years as in-house counsel for United Technologies Corporation (UTC), serving as vice president and Counsel at the Pratt & Whitney Military Engines Division from 1993 to 2012. Dur- ing his tenure at UTC, he was responsible for a wide variety of business and corporate legal matters. His work included enforcement of the company’s Code of Ethics, and the integration of ethical considerations into business decision-making. He has lectured at Trinity College and Brown
(such as composites), modeling joints (forexample, welds), etc. As the technology advances both in terms of computational power andtheory, performing FEA has become routine in many industries that engineers withundergraduate education are able to validate and interpret the results of FEA with experimentaldata or with other models.A simple structural 1D bar or beam element consists of two end nodes with zero or one or moremid-nodes. Each such element in the linear analysis is treated as an axially-loaded member ortransversely-loaded beam (or a combination of these as a beam) for which stress and deflection Page 15.212.4equations are used.

The ethical issues involve thework of engineers, but the topics also fall within the realms of philosophy, politics, economics,law, sociology, and psychology. The ethical issues are as follows:1. New transportation corridors through neighborhoods. Commerce depends on an efficient transportation system, but how should society balance public interest and individuals’ rights?2. SUVs. SUVs are very prevalent on roadways now, but should they vanish?3. Agricultural enhancements. To feed a growing world population, should society employ all available technological agricultural advances or adhere to natural practices?4. Space

While it is clear that there is a need to grow the numbers of scientists and engineers required to take on the challenge of these types of problems [2], the idea of reforming the way in which they are trained has gained little traction. Recent advances in technology have enabled neurologists and cognitive scientists to map brain activity and describe ways in which people best learn and retain information. Scientists know that for learning to occur, neural pathways must be formed. New neural paths begin with existing
