The Ethics Education in Science and Engineering award to Duke University supports a team of five faculty led by Dr. Tod A. Laursen, Civil & Environmental Engineering Department, to conduct research and education on ethical issues which can have profoundly adverse impacts on society, such as those posed by unintended consequences of nanoscientific breakthroughs.This combined research and educational project consists of a team of engineers, scientists,ethicists, and educational specialists to collaboratively develop a new paradigm of ethical education of graduate-level researchers in emerging fields. The team includes researchers from several such interdisciplinary fields and benefits from its presence in a university that has already systematized the delivery of Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) in all its Ph.D. programs. This project will build upon that base by developing, implementing, and assessing multiple modes of delivery for micro- and macroethical training and by working with doctoral and professional master's students to imbed these modes within their graduate experience. The project's collaborative approach to providing ethics education will involve multiple schools and centers within Duke as well as interactions and partnerships with NC Central University's Biomedical/Biotechnology Research Institute, NC State University's Graduate School and Research and Professional Ethics Program, and the UNC-Chapel Hill's Graduate School.The proposal for this award was received in response to the Ethics Education in Science and Engineering announcement, NSF 05-532, and was funded by the Division of Engineering Education and Centers (EEC) in the Directorate for Engineering and by the Directorate for Social, Behavioral & Economic Sciences.

杜克大学科学与工程伦理教育奖支持由土木与环境工程系 Tod A. Laursen 博士领导的一个由五名教师组成的团队，对可能对社会产生深远不利影响的伦理问题进行研究和教育，例如纳米科学突破的意外后果所造成的后果。这个联合研究和教育项目由工程师、科学家、伦理学家和教育专家组成的团队组成，共同开发 新兴领域研究生水平研究人员伦理教育的新范式。该团队包括来自多个此类跨学科领域的研究人员，并受益于其在大学中的存在，该大学已经在其所有博士学位课程中系统化了负责任的研究行为（RCR）。程序。该项目将在此基础上开发、实施和评估微观和宏观道德培训的多种交付模式，并与博士生和专业硕士生合作，将这些模式融入到他们的研究生经历中。该项目提供道德教育的合作方法将涉及杜克大学内的多个学校和中心，以及与北卡罗来纳中央大学生物医学/生物技术研究所、北卡罗来纳州立大学研究生院和研究与职业道德项目以及北卡罗来纳大学教堂山研究生院的互动和伙伴关系。该奖项的提案是为了响应科学与工程伦理教育公告（NSF 05-532）而收到的，并得到了批准。 由工程理事会工程教育和中心 (EEC) 部以及社会、行为和经济科学理事会资助。
