  • a discussion on Engineering Ethic education in universities
    Journal of Huazhong Agricultural University, 2009
    Co-Authors: Pan Jianhong
    Abstract:

    Engineering Ethic education is an important link in the advanced Engineering education and a necessary part in the cultivation of technicians with high qualities for the future.The paper brings forward the view that Engineering Ethic education should be strengthened from many aspects,such as enhancing the qualities of teachers of Engineering Ethics,reinforcing the relevant curricula construction,encouraging the interaction between Engineering Ethnics and other courses,strengthening the practical training of the students by combining social practice in their learning processs,etc.

  • Tragedy in the gulf: A call for a new Engineering Ethic
    2011 Frontiers in Education Conference (FIE), 2011
    Co-Authors: George D. Catalano
    Abstract:

    The question that the present work addresses is how might we move the Engineering profession towards a more encompassing Engineering Ethic and do it in a way which the practitioners might be receptive to such new ideas? Put another way, how might we develop a new Engineering Ethic, which focuses more upon the results as evidence by its adoption across the myriad of disciplines rather than the purity or elegance of the argument? The present work seeks to offer one approach that might work borrowing from our developing view of complex systems theory. One important characteristic of a complex system - and we shall consider others - is that a system is composed of interconnected parts that as a whole exhibit one or more properties. Stated another way, the behavior among the possible properties may not be obvious from the properties of the individual parts. The proposed new Ethic also integrates new ideas from quantum mechanics as well as eco-philosophy.

  • developing an environmentally friendly Engineering Ethic a course for undergraduate Engineering students
    Journal of Engineering Education, 1993
    Co-Authors: George D. Catalano
    Abstract:

    An undergraduate course designed to develop a new, environmentally-friendly, Engineering Ethic is described. The various components of the course are: individual and societal values clarification, the current state of the environment, critical and creative thinking skills development and conflict resolution. For each component, the rationale is given along with activities and evaluation of the unit.

  • Engineering Ethic teaching program at cycu
    2000
    Co-Authors: Hsin Rau, Taowei Feng, Jyhtong Teng, Gangsheng Ling, Samuel H S Wang
    Abstract:

    Ever since 1990, the course on Engineering Ethics has been offered at Chung Yuan Christian University (CYCU). This paper discusses the philosophy behind the teaching of Engineering Ethics, the method of teaching implemented, the accomplishment achieved, the problems encountered, and the challenges ahead. In addition, the penetrative teaching of Engineering Ethics for a civil Engineering course is illustrated. The teaching of Engineering Ethics is particularly important in Taiwan due to the fact that numerous Engineering Ethics issues have happened quite frequently. These issues include the infringements of the intellectual property rights, the loaning of the construction licenses, the illegal practices of bids of major Engineering projects, etc. It is high time for the educators of various Engineering disciplines in Taiwan and possibly in many parts of the world to emphasize and include this essential aspect of the Engineering training in their respective curricula.

  • an exploration of Engineering Ethic education
    Journal of North University of China, 2008
    Co-Authors: Hu Yan
    Abstract:

    As the main body in Engineering-oriented activities,engineers usually encounter with a variety of Ethic problems.Fulfilling their Ethic obligations overweighs accomplishing the Engineering job itself.Therefore,engineers need to raise their Ethic consciousness and take the moral responsibility.With the reform of higher Engineering education deepened,enhancing the Engineering Ethic education has become a top priority in universities of science and Engineering.
