AbstractThe article discusses the issues an instructor should consider in teaching ethics in an engineering program. The historical backgrounds of ethics and ethics in the context of professional responsibilities are discussed. Teaching of ethics in engineering and other areas such as a business program is analyzed and compared. The contents, teaching frameworks, delivery methods, and assessment of effectiveness of teaching ethics are addressed. The role of ethics in the decision-making process and its models as encountered in engineering are reviewed. Guidelines for solving ethical issues and the assessment methods are provided, and illustrated in an example ethics course for engineering and science students.
