Promoting Ethical Practices in Engineering Undergraduates
Future engineering professionals are expected to be technically and scientifically sound, work in international and interdisciplinary teams and, above all, be able to systematically adopt sustainable and ethical design and development practices. These are the challenges faced nowadays by engineering undergraduates and engineering programmes. The European Project Semester (EPS) is a capstone programme offered by a network of European universities to engineering, project design and business undergraduates. Its goal is to prepare engineering undergraduates for their future profession by exposing them to one semester of project-based, multicultural and multidisciplinary teamwork where both hard and soft skills are matured. The Portuguese programme, which is run by Instituto Superior de Engenharia do Porto (ISEP) since the academic year of 2010-2011, emphasises additionally on the ethical and sustainability dimensions of engineering project development. This paper describes how EPS@ISEP achieves this goal by introducing the programme, defining and applying an analysis framework to illustrative robotic projects developed within the programme, identifying and collecting evidences of ethical design and development practices. ; info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion
