How can we teachethics to our engineering or technology students? This paper will explore different methods andtools that can be implemented and then assessed in trying to teach ethics to students. One of themain points is that students must be taught at lower levels or at the beginning of their universityexperience.

A technically illiteratepopulation is not capable of understanding and making the informed decisions necessary tomaintain our quality of life. The overall decline in B.S. degrees in engineering during the period1996-2000 as documented by the Engineering Workforce Commission of American Associationof Professional Societies highlights this problem1.
