Area of Science:

  • Engineering Education
  • Ethics in Engineering

Background:

  • Engineering curricula often lack dedicated ethics training.
  • Professional engineering responsibilities require ethical decision-making.
  • Developing moral imagination is crucial for engineers.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe a seminar for teaching engineering ethics.
  • To enhance students' ethical problem-solving skills.
  • To emphasize the prevalence of ethical challenges in engineering.

Main Methods:

  • A one-credit First-Year Seminar focused on engineering ethics.
  • Weekly class discussions on ethical frameworks and professional responsibilities.
  • Students analyze and discuss five engineering ethics cases per semester.

Main Results:

  • Students develop ethical problem-solving skills.
  • Moral imagination is cultivated alongside technical imagination.
  • Students practice constructing and critiquing arguments through case studies.

Conclusions:

  • The seminar effectively integrates ethics into engineering education.
  • Students gain a better understanding of engineers' professional duties.
  • The course fosters critical thinking and ethical reasoning in future engineers.
