Abstract

Engineering ethics tends to conceive itself as a form of professional ethics. Recently it has been challenged to become broader and more practically effective. By analysing and reflecting on this challenge and drawing on resources from the fields of Western philosophy of technology and STS, this article proposes a model of practical effectiveness with interpretation, operation, and dialogue in engineering ethics education.
