The 15 outcomes include andbegin with the 11 outcomes of the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET)and prescribe more technical depth and additional breadth [1]. Both ASCE and ABET cite anunderstanding of ethics.The preamble to the Code of Ethics for Engineers of the National Society of ProfessionalEngineers (NSPE) states in part: “Engineering is an important and learned profession.

engineeringeducation, very few studies have examined what students themselves think of sustainability.Studies on student perceptions of sustainability-related topics give us some indication of theinterest and motivation students may have in learning about sustainability. Researchers at theUniversity of Washington10 examined engineering students' conceptions of their profession. Thestudent group as a whole had conceptions covering all eleven of the United States AccreditationBoard for Engineering and Technology graduate attributes11. There was, predictably, a strongfocus on technical concepts and great variation in the range of outcomes included in individualschemas. The study suggests that students' conceptions of what it is to be an engineer varywidely, from

Third, participation from engineering department faculty in the generaleducation components enables them to make these cross-curricular connections. Lastly, facultymentoring and training help achieve this shared goal. Future directions could include makingthese intentional connections common throughout other classes in the engineering curriculum,including both studio design classes and engineering analysis classes.IntroductionTeaching engineering ethics is important for a number of reasons, including the tremendousimpact of technology on society, the reputation of the engineering profession, and the characterdevelopment of students [1] - [6].

constant vigilance for the potential violation of engineering ethics must beidentified to the student as their responsibility. They must assume the roll of a waryattendant as well as the competent engineer once they join the engineering profession. Itis suggested that weaving ethics instruction within the ‘normal’ engineering course workcan be an effective means of accomplishing this task. It also has an added benefit: theInstructor is constantly reminded of his/her ethical responsibilities while trying to instillsome ethical conscience in the students.Biography:Francis A.
