Inthis project, the use of a real-world engineering ethics case study was integrated into the SeniorUnit Operations Laboratory course over two separate class years (i.e. Year 1 and Year 2). Themotivation behind this was twofold. First, the assignment provides the opportunity to develop

Engineers must sometimes make significant decisions that are oftenbased upon what appears to be what they believe to be morally correct and what appears to bebest for their employers or themselves. Engineering education, however, does not alwayssufficiently prepare students for the ethical conflicts that face them when they join theworkforce. Consequently, engineering
