CMPE 598 Seminar, Dr.Mehmet BodurCMPE, EMU 3 PROFESSIONAL ETHICS Engineering is a profession ( similar to medicin, theology and law ) rather than an occupation. All professions combine special knowledge, special privileges, and special responsibilities. Professional skills are important to the well-being of society. Professionals have autonomy in the workplace; they are expected to utilize their independent judgment in carrying out their professional responsibilities. Finally, professions are regulated by ethical standards. NATIONAL COUNCIL OF EXAMINERS FOR ENGINEERING AND SURVEYING

CMPE 598 Seminar, Dr.Mehmet BodurCMPE, EMU 4 PROFESSIONAL ETHICS A high level of technical expertise without adherence to ethical guidelines is a threat to public welfare and also it creates professional incompetence. To prevent this, engineers must also be guided by ethical principles. The ethical principles governing the engineering profession are embodied in codes of ethics. Such codes have been adopted by state boards of registration, professional engineering societies, and even by some private industries. NATIONAL COUNCIL OF EXAMINERS FOR ENGINEERING AND SURVEYING

CMPE 598 Seminar, Dr.Mehmet BodurCMPE, EMU 5 PROFESSIONAL ETHICS An example of one such code is Canadian Council of Professional Engineers Ethics Code, and in US, the NCEES Model Rules of Professional Conduct. As part of his/her responsibility to the public, an engineer is responsible for knowing and abiding by the code. The three major sections of the model rules address (1) Licensee's Obligations to Society, (2) Licensee's Obligations to Employers and Clients, (3) Licensee's Obligations to Other Licensees. NATIONAL COUNCIL OF EXAMINERS FOR ENGINEERING AND SURVEYING

CMPE 598 Seminar, Dr.Mehmet BodurCMPE, EMU 6 PROFESSIONAL ETHICS The principles mentioned in these sections are important guides to appropriate behavior of professional engineers. Application of the code in many situations is not controversial. However, there may be situations in which applying the code may raise more difficult issues. In particular, there may be circumstances in which terminology in the code is not clearly defined, or in which two sections of the code may be in conflict. For example, "valuable consideration" or "adequate knowledge" may be interpreted differently. NATIONAL COUNCIL OF EXAMINERS FOR ENGINEERING AND SURVEYING

CMPE 598 Seminar, Dr.Mehmet BodurCMPE, EMU 7 PROFESSIONAL ETHICS Many engineering design decisions may be based upon interpretation of disputed or incomplete information. In addition, tradeoffs revolving around competing issues of risk vs. benefit, or safety vs. economics may require judgments that are not fully addressed simply by application of the code. No code can give immediate and mechanical answers to all ethical and professional problems that an engineer may face. Creative problem solving is often called for in ethics, just as it is in other areas of engineering. NATIONAL COUNCIL OF EXAMINERS FOR ENGINEERING AND SURVEYING

CMPE 598 Seminar, Dr.Mehmet BodurCMPE, EMU 8 PROFESSIONAL ETHICS To comply with the purpose of the (identify jurisdiction, licensing statute) which is to safeguard life, health, and property, to promote the public welfare, and to maintain a high standard of integrity and practice, the (identify board, licensing statute) has developed the following Rules of Professional Conduct.
