General Definition of Ethics The study of the characteristics of morals. The study of the moral choices made by each person in his or her relationships with other persons. Reference: Engineering Ethics by Fleddermann

Personal vs. Professional Ethics Personal Ethics: Deals with how we treat others in our day-to-day lives. Business/Professional Ethics: Involves choices regarding relationships between organizations and other organizations, government, and groups of individuals. The complexity of these relationships often pose dilemmas not encountered in personal ethics. Reference: Engineering Ethics by Fleddermann

Engineering Ethics The rules and standards which govern the conduct of engineers in their role as professionals. Engineering ethics are similar to general ethics, but apply to the specific issues which affect engineering professionals. Decisions made by engineers can impact public health, safety, business practices and politics and as a result engineers must be aware of moral implications as they make decisions in the workplace. Reference: Engineering Ethics by Fleddermann

Engineering Ethics Ethical problems in engineering are often complex and involve conflicting ethical principles. Engineers must be able to intelligent resolve these conflicts and reach a defensible decision The study of ethics can help engineers to develop a moral autonomy: The ability to think critically and independently about moral issues The ability to apply this moral thinking to situations that arise in the course of professional engineering practice Reference: Engineering Ethics by Fleddermann

Engineering Ethics Standards, Rules, Guidelines Moral or Socially Approved Conduct Honesty, Truthfulness, Trustworthiness Acting in the best interest of society Ethical Standards exist independently - accessible to all rational thinkers Codification merely summarizes, rather than defines Applies only to conduct that has significant impact

Ethics vs. Legalities Legal Standards are defined in legal documents by a properly appointed body. Legal documents and legal experts determine what the law is and who must obey the law. Ethical Standards are assumed to exist independently of any sanctioning body and are apparent to rationale thinking. Written forms of the standards merely describe the pre- existing standards rather than define their very nature. Ethical standards always supersede legal standards.
