To frame this question this paper questions how well rules-based, or deontological,ethics provides useful guidelines in the case that the domain in which decisions are made becomecomplex or when technology is changing rapidly. Given that some companies report the half-lifeof information is as short as six months [private communication], can engineering ethics alwaysprovide useful guidance to action, or are there situations where other ethical frameworks aremore appropriate?Engineering ethics is an often-discussed subject, and substantial work in engineering educationaddresses how to effectively teach ethics [1]–[3], evaluate learning outcomes [4], and identifyissues and

Laboratory for Computer Integrated Manufacturing CoursesI. IntroductionThis paper describes the development of an online laboratory for students in Computer-Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) courses. Computer-Integrated Manufacturing is acomprehensive topic taught in a 400 level course to senior undergraduate students, and in a 600level online course to graduate students. Teaching computer-integrated manufacturing coursescan be a challenge because of the breadth of topics spanning from manufacturing technology toelectronic technology and computer technology which encompasses concepts frommanufacturing processes such as modeling and milling, to manufacturing automation systemsand manufacturing information management
