Descriptions Ethics and Engineering
"Tell an engineer that you teach engineering ethics and it will not be long before you hear one of the biases about engineering, about ethics, or about how the two fields relate to each other. Ironically, one persistent bias is the view that engineering is an unbiased and objective practice, because "engineers deal with facts and figures, so there is no place for opinions or ethics in the practice of engineering". Another bias, fuelled by much thought and discussion about ethics in relation to malpractices, is that an engineer "must be honest.""--
