Engineering, Business and Professional Ethics
Engineering, as a profession and business, is at the sharp end of ethical practice. Far from being a bolt on extra to the ‘real work’ of the engineer, it is at the heart of how he or she relates to the many different stakeholders in the engineering project.
‘Engineering, Business and Professional Ethics’ highlights the ethical dimension of engineering and shows how values and responsibility relate to everyday practice. Looking at the underlying value systems that inform practical thinking, this book offers a framework for ethical decision making.
Covering global corporate responsibility and the increasing concern for the environment within the engineering business, this book offers ways in which value conflict can be handled. Integrating practice, value and diversity, this book helps to prepare the engineer for the ethical challenges of the 21st century.
This book is essential reading for all students on courses accredited by the Engineering Council e.g. Civil, Chemical, Mechanical, and Environmental Engineering who need to be aware of ethics. It will also be of interest to practicing engineers and professionals such as Sustainability Managers and Community Workers involved in engineering projects.
