    principles that apply to the practice
    of engineering.

    Interaction Rules of
    Behavior
    Etiquette - rules of acceptable personal behavior
    and courtesy when interacting with others in a social
    setting.
    Laws - a system of rules and punishments clearly
    defined and established by a society to maintain a

    particular society.

    Professional Ethics
    Ethics is the study of the morality
    of human actions.
    Professional ethics guide the
    conduct of a professional.
    Most technical societies have
    written codes of ethics.

    Code of Ethics
    As professionals, engineers
    have a code of ethics

    Fundamental Principles
    Published by the
    Accreditation Board for
    Engineering and Technology
    (ABET)

    Preamble and Four


    Parts

    Fundamental Principles
    Engineers uphold and advance the integrity,
    honor and dignity of the engineering
    profession by:
    I. using their knowledge and skill for the
    enhancement of human welfare;
    II. being honest and impartial, and serving with
    fidelity the public, their employers and clients;
    III. striving to increase the competence and prestige
    of the engineering profession; and
    IV. supporting the professional and technical
    societies of their disciplines.

    Fundamental Canons
    1.Engineers shall hold paramount the safety, health
    and welfare of the public in the performance of
    their professional duties.
    2.Engineers shall perform services only in the
    areas of their competence.
    3.Engineers shall issue public statements only in
    an objective and truthful manner.
    4.Engineers shall act in professional matters for
    each employer or client as faithful agents or
    trustees, and shall avoid conflicts of interest.

    Fundamental Canons
    1.Engineers shall build professional reputation on
    the merit of their services and shall not compete
    unfairly with others.
    2.Engineers shall act in such a manner as to
    uphold and enhance the honor, integrity and
    dignity of the profession.
    3.Engineers shall continue their professional
    development throughout their careers and shall
    provide opportunities for the professional
    development of those engineers under their
    supervision.

    Case Study Example


    Actions Affecting Human Life:
    A leather manufacturer disposes of
    dangerous leather-cleaning chemicals in the
    river causing the citys water to be
    contaminated with carcinogens. Eight children
    died by leukemia.

    Case Study Example


    What should the owner of the plant
    do?
    1. Say nothing about the problem. If challenged, claim
    that it is impossible to prove that the plant discharge
    caused the leukemia.
    2. Work out a cleaning system that would rectify the
    problem.
    3. Admit that he made the error, clean the discharge,
    clean all contaminated areas, have the Environmental
    Protection Agency (EPA) inspect the cleaned areas, and
    pay a settlement to the families of lost children.

    Case Study Example


    Do Ethical Canons
    Apply?

    Ethical Canons
    Engineers shall hold
    paramount the safety, health
    and welfare of the public in
    the performance of their
    professional duties.

    Resource Allocation
    Engineers are often responsible for allocating limited
    funds to projects.
    These projects may affect the general health and
    safety of the public.
    These projects may have detrimental effects on
    some segments of the population.
