On the Status and Significance of Education on Engineering Ethics in Engineering Education

摘要

Nowadays, more and more engineering educations and researches would no longer be social activity that is external to the production, but would be a necessary part of the expanded production process. As a result, the ethical considerations and conflicts often appear in the course of the whole project all the time. Ethical issues run through all stages of project activities from design, manufacturing to use. Education on engineering ethics is an integral part of engineering education, an inherent requirement of improving the overall quality of engineering students, an need for the integration with the international engineering education and an need for comprehensive development of engineering education. It can help us promote the implementation of scientific concept of development and achieve sustainable development.
