Engineering Ethics
The EPC Board considered its own ethical responsibility – including representing our members’ views, supporting good practice and as an organisation – at its retreat in January 2020.
This led to the clear action for the EPC to promote engineering ethics more proactively and adopt clear ethical positions.
A key aspect of this is enabling the embedding of ethical best practice into the UK engineering higher education curriculum through creation of an ‘Engineering Ethics Toolkit’.
Please find a wide selection of resources related to this campaign below, including the Engineering Ethics toolkit (created by the Engineering Professors’ Council for the Royal Academy of Engineering).
