General Information:
Engineering ethics refers to the set of principles and moral guidelines that govern the conduct of engineers in their professional practice. It involves making decisions and judgments that prioritize the well-being of society, the environment, and individuals while upholding integrity and responsibility. Ethical decision-making in engineering involves evaluating complex dilemmas, considering the potential consequences of choices, and adhering to codes of ethics established by professional organizations. Engineers must weigh technical feasibility against ethical considerations, ensuring their work aligns with safety, sustainability, and social values. Ethical judgments play a pivotal role in engineering, guiding professionals in navigating the ethical challenges and moral responsibilities inherent in their field.
Case Study Description:
In this case study, the students in groups are required to prepare a report (minimum of 1,000 words).
The report is required to be in Microsoft Word format – handwritten assignments will not be accepted. A maximum of five students can submit one report with writing clearly the contribution and role of each student in completing the assignment.
A cover page containing names and students’Answer each question separately and at the end of each secondary information you must include citations for the reference in APA format. List of references should be added to the end of assignment.
Plagiarism is strictly prohibited, if anyone copies from another group or “copy and paste” from external source it will be automatically counted as “ZERO”.
Using the References provided in D2L and/or other research resources such as the internet and library to complete the following:
1.
What is the difference between ethical issues and ethical dilemmas?
2.
Select an engineering ethical case study (issue or dilemma)?
3.
Apply problem solving techniques to solve the selected ethical issue/dilemma by using the steps in any “Framework for Ethical Decision Making” shown in the provided power-point in the D2L or any of other frameworks, which can be obtained from the internet such as the one shown in the appendix attached to the end of this assignment.
