...Sci Eng Ethics (2011) 17:597–605 DOI 10.1007/s11948-010-9213-7 Teaching Ethics to Engineers: Ethical Decision Making Parallels the Engineering Design Process Bridget Bero • Alana Kuhlman Received: 14 January 2010 / Accepted: 18 May 2010 / Published online: 4 June 2010 Ó Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2010 Abstract In order to fulfill ABET requirements, Northern Arizona University’s Civil and Environmental engineering programs incorporate professional ethics in several of its engineering courses. This paper discusses an ethics module in a 3rd year engineering design course that focuses on the design process and technical writing. Engineering students early in their student careers generally possess good black/white critical thinking skills on technical issues. Engineering design is the first time students are exposed to ‘‘grey’’ or multiple possible solution technical problems. To identify and solve these problems, the engineering design process is used. Ethical problems are also ‘‘grey’’ problems and present similar challenges to students. Students need a practical tool for solving these ethical problems. The stepwise engineering design process was used as a model to demonstrate a similar process for ethical situations. The ethical decision making process of Martin and Schinzinger was adapted for parallelism to the design process and presented to students as a step-wise technique for identification of the pertinent ethical issues, relevant moral theories, possible...

A critical thinking component is included in the course. Specific problems relating to topics such as corporate responsibility, employee rights, and the nature of the free enterprise system, environmental concern and ethical business practices. In deciding how to act, managers reveal their inner values, test their commitment to those values, and ultimately shape their characters. In general, Ethics is both an academic “subject” and a thoughtful way of doing things. Theoretical Ethics is that branch of Philosophy concerned with determining what is right (with regard to principles and actions) and what is good (what ends or ideals are worth pursuing and what values are worth holding). Practical Ethics is the art or techne (know-how) of figuring out how to make things better rather than worse with regard to concrete or actual situations. Business Ethics is a type of applied ethics. As such, it is concerned...
