Abstract Ethics and social responsibility are often viewed as key areas of concern for many engineering educators professional engineers. Thus, it is important to consider how students professionals understand navigate ethical issues, explore such perceptions abilities change over time, investigate if certain types interventions experiences (e.g., coursework, training, service activities, etc.) impact individual participants. The breadth a profession also raises questions about ethics...
Background: Studies of changes in engineering students' perceptions ethics and social responsibility over time have often resulted mixed results or shown only small longitudinal shifts. Comparisons across different studies been difficult due to the diverse frameworks that used for measurement analysis research on revealed major gaps between tools instruments available assess complexity ethical constructs. Purpose/Hypothesis: The purpose this study was understand how views change four years...
Abstract As engineering education seeks to integrate more experiential learning into the undergraduate portfolio, experiences within and outside of traditional curriculum are being explored. To this end, community engagement is a particularly promising pedagogy, given its alignment with diversity research leveraging university resources address needs our society. One largest organizations Engineers Without Borders USA (EWB-USA), which recently celebrated 20 years student engagement. This...
Abstract According to the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics, union density amongst engineering workers within US hovers around 7%. Despite hundreds thousands engineers participating in labor movement, education on unions has been virtually non-existent higher programs. programs are critical junctures making that have long histories ensnarement by corporate industries with vested interests undermining organized labor. This stark and significant absence coupled decades-long...
Abstract US engineering professional societies have been influential institutions that propagate a constricted understanding of the roles and responsibilities an engineer within society by upholding alignment industry over reflective hegemonic adherence to business professionalism. The ideology professionalism advances beliefs engineers are, should be, unshakably beholden capitalist corporate owners industries they extract profit through. In this paper, we examine historically anti-union...
The inclusion of society and environment into the quintuple innovation helix opens door to explore issues ethics social justice within engineering. There have been many discussions about relationship between engineering how this is taught (see books Riley, 2008; Lucena, 2013; Leydens 2017). purpose poster highlight early career engineers perceive as well identify common themes that could be used inspire future analysis. This uses data collected from 20 part a larger longitudinal...
This paper uses the critical incident technique to analyze how early career engineers experience ethics in workplace. Our results build off a previously developed framework that categorizes incidents related professional engineering ethics, but we expand address its gaps. Though there was significant overlap between our findings and existing types of reported by participants, some cases severity negative ethical not captured categories, especially when describing sexual harassment Many also...
