The background of and motivations for our studyIn this first section, we outline a broad research and educational agenda related to engineeringethics in global contexts. First, we discuss public safety concerns related to Chinese industriesand engineers, both in China and abroad. Next, we describe the nature of engineering ethics(education

In support of these specific aims we have created four distinct annualtraining sessions: 1) week-long annual planning meetings hosted by either UNILAG or UI andfacilitated by the NU team; 2) ten-week long biomedical engineering training programs at theUniversity of Cape Town (UCT) facilitated by UCT and NU faculty ; 3) participation in two-week long Kellogg

Graduates of the programs are expected tobe equipped with fundamental knowledge, expertise and relearning capacity in related areasas well as a global outlook, science literary and innovative mind, which can prepare them fora fulfilling career in engineering as a researcher, designer, manufacturer, developer oradministrator.There are several important characteristics of the program between UB and WUST: (1) theprogram focuses on a specific academic program, so both universities co-design the programsuch that fits students at WUST: (2) a collaborative program by
an increase in clicks from the TTU engineering students. For example, the image below of Spongebob Squarepants was related to an extension date for our Chile programs. The headline was, “There’s still time to apply to Chile programs! The deadline has been extended to this Friday”. Within 15 hours it had reached 90 people.

The major cause was lack ofresources and awareness which eventually resulted in absence of defined career path neither inacademia nor in industry. The situation is changing now with a positive rate. However, there stillis only a small fraction of students opting for this field in their undergraduate studies. This hasposed a challenge to academia to introduce students of different background to thismultidisciplinary field. A new introductory course for undergraduate ECE students was neededespecially.
