摘要必须教导学生理解与工程和技术相关的伦理问题,包括微观伦理和宏观伦理。本研究通过比较(1)美国,(2)非美国盎格鲁和(3)西欧国家的教育者之间的伦理相关的教育成果,研究了文化环境的影响。在一个日益全球化的世界里,公司和项目从各国吸引人才,了解不同的文化如何教育未来的工程师他们的道德责任是很重要的。调查结果显示,所有三个群体中的大多数教育工作者都认为本科生和研究生的道德教育不够。与美国受访者相比,非美国的盎格鲁和西欧教育工作者在课程中教授可持续发展和环境问题的比例更高。美国的教育工作者比西欧的教育工作者更多地教授道德规范、设计道德和安全。不限成员名额的答复阐明了改进道德操守教育的挑战和机遇。
ABSTRACT Students must be taught to understand the ethical issues associated with engineering and technology, which includes microethics and macroethics. This research examined the influence of cultural environment by comparing ethics-related education outcomes between educators in (1) the United States, (2) non-US Anglo, and (3) Western European countries who teach engineering students. In an increasingly globalised world where companies and projects draw from talent across countries, it is important to understand how different cultures educate future engineers about their ethical responsibilities. Survey results revealed that a majority of educators in all three groups viewed undergraduate and postgraduate education on ethics as insufficient. A higher percentage of non-US Anglo and Western European educators taught sustainability and environmental issues in their courses compared to US respondents. US educators taught codes of ethics, ethics in design, and safety more than those in Western Europe. Open-ended responses illuminated challenges and opportunities to improve ethics education.
