Description

Ethics is not merely a matter of personal integrity: it is a process for assessing what is desirable. It requires open-mindedness, curiosity, creativity, an ability to take vulnerabilities into account, and an understanding of technological developments and the engineering profession. The workshops in the ethics zone are designed with this in mind, centred on the overarching theme of ‘Applied Ethics’, to train engineers capable of thinking, analysing and acting responsibly.
