Engineering Ethics
This volume is a collection of articles published since engineering ethics developed a distinct scholarly field in the late 1970s that will help define the field of engineering ethics. Among the perennial questions addressed are: What is engineering (and what is engineering ethics)? What professional responsibilities do engineers have and why? What professional autonomy can engineers have in large organizations? What is the relationship between ethics and codes of ethics and how should engineering ethics be taught?
The Routledge International Handbook of Engineering Ethics Education
Responding to the need for a timely and authoritative volume dedicated to this burgeoning and expansive area of research, this handbook will provide readers with a map of themes, topics, and arguments in the field of engineering ethics education (EEE). Featuring critical discussion, research collaboration, and a team of international contributors of globally recognized standing, this volume comprises six key sections which elaborate on the foundations of EEE, teaching methods, accreditation and assessment, and interdisciplinary contributions. Over 100 researchers of EEE from around the globe consider the field from the perspectives of teaching, research, philosophy, and administration. The chapters cover fast-moving topics central to our current understanding of the world such as the general data protection regulation (GDPR), artificial intelligence (AI), biotechnology, and ChatGPT; and they offer new insights into best practices research to equip program leaders and instructors delivering ethics content to students. This Open Access volume will be of interest to researchers, scholars, postgraduate students, and faculty involved with engineering education, engineering ethics, and philosophy of education. Curriculum designers, staff developers teaching pedagogical courses to faculty, and engineering professionals may also benefit from this volume.

Professional Ethics for Engineers
Engineering is a vital profession that has shaped the modern world and transformed countless aspects of our lives. From bridges to skyscrapers, from medical devices to digital technologies, engineers have been at the forefront of innovation and progress. Yet with this great power comes great responsibility. As engineers, we have an ethical obligation to use our skills and knowledge for the public good, and to behave in a manner that is consistent with the highest principles of integrity, honesty, and accountability. This book is intended as a comprehensive guide to the principles and practices of professional ethics for engineering graduate students. It is designed to provide a strong foundation for understanding the ethical challenges that engineers face, and to develop the skills and knowledge needed to navigate these challenges effectively. The book is structured around several key themes, including an overview of professional ethics, ethical decision-making frameworks, central responsibilities of engineers, and intellectual property rights and ethics. In each chapter, we explore the essential concepts and principles of professional ethics in engineering, drawing on real-world case studies and examples to illustrate the application of these principles in practice. We also provide exercises and worksheets to encourage students to reflect on and apply ethical principles to their own work. The goal of this book is not to provide a set of hard and fast rules, but rather to encourage critical thinking, reflection, and ethical awareness. We believe that ethical decision-making is a process that requires careful consideration of a range of factors, and that there are often no easy answers or simple solutions. By equipping students with the skills and knowledge needed to navigate these challenges, we hope to contribute to the development of a new generation of engineers who are committed to ethical conduct and the public good. We would like to express our gratitude to the many colleagues, students, and professionals who have provided valuable feedback and insights throughout the development of this book. We hope that it will serve as a valuable resource for engineering graduate students and others seeking to understand and navigate the complex ethical challenges of the engineering profession.
