Abstract

This is a unique, thought-provoking, and – yes - even entertaining discussion of how Engineer-ing Ethics is different than you may expect. Instead of obvious examples and a focus on values like objectivity, competence, and integrity, explore how the bedrock of ethics is really built on a different set of traits – mentoring, self-reflection, and especially teamwork. With a focus on today’s challenges facing chemical engineering, be prepared to view engineering ethics in a new way. This presentation covers the ethics continuing education topics required of many Professional Engineering boards.
