Advanced Ethics in Engineering (7578ENG)

The IEAust Code of Ethics is the defining document for all professionally accredited engineers in Australia. The major tenants form part of all undergraduate engineering education. The Code of Ethics aligns with other codes of ethics for engineering organisations around the world. This course seeks to develop the fundamental ethical principles and applications to a changing world perspective, particularly in relation to (i) Sustainability (as exemplified by life cycle analysis, climate change and quality of life); (ii) Digital data (data storage, data applications and use, access restrictions and control); (iii) Biomedical applications (implants, automatic control systems); (iv) Privacy for individuals versus the public good and (v) Sources of information ('fake news', advertising integrity)
