项目摘要

This project will investigate the variation in ways engineers experience and understand engineering ethics within research and practice activities in the health products industry. The project will facilitate the alignment between ethics education with the needs of engineers in industry practice. The goal of this research is to explore the variation in ways engineers understand ethics within real-world practice. The research team will interview practicing engineers and student engineering interns then analyze and compare their understanding of ethics with the current strategies for teaching ethics to engineers and determine the gaps and strengths within the health products industry. The findings of this project will help educators, engineers, policy makers and administrators to evaluate current methods for teaching ethics to engineers and to determine which strategies will best prepare engineers to respond to ethical issues effectively.In this 3-year project, the research team will systematically investigate the range and complexity of ways that engineers experience ethics in the cultural and institutional contexts of everyday engineering research and practice in the health products industry. The team will apply phenomenography, a qualitative research approach, to explore and categorize the variation in ways engineers experience and understand engineering ethics within research and practice activities in the health products industry. The data will be analyzed and developed into an ?outcome space? describing a comprehensive understanding of ethical engineering practice. From this, factors that are efficacious in the formation of ethical engineering practice will be identified. The study will develop and validate current frameworks in ethics education and to determine which pedagogical and assessment strategies will cultivate comprehensive levels of ethical engineering research and practice, particularly within the context of the health products industry.

该项目将调查工程师在健康产品行业的研究和实践活动中体验和理解工程伦理的方式的变化。该项目将促进道德教育与工程师在行业实践中的需求之间的结合。这项研究的目的是探索工程师在现实世界实践中理解道德的方式的变化。研究团队将采访执业工程师和工程实习生，然后分析他们对道德的理解，并将其与当前向工程师教授道德的策略进行比较，以确定健康产品行业内的差距和优势。该项目的研究结果将帮助教育工作者、工程师、政策制定者和管理人员评估当前向工程师传授道德的方法，并确定哪些策略最能帮助工程师有效应对道德问题。在这个为期 3 年的项目中，研究团队将系统地调查工程师在健康产品行业日常工程研究和实践的文化和制度背景下体验道德的方式的范围和复杂性。该团队将应用现象学（一种定性研究方法）来探索和分类工程师在健康产品行业的研究和实践活动中体验和理解工程伦理的方式的变化。数据将被分析并开发成“结果空间”。描述对道德工程实践的全面理解。由此，将确定对道德工程实践形成有效的因素。该研究将开发和验证当前的道德教育框架，并确定哪些教学和评估策略将培养综合水平的道德工程研究和实践，特别是在健康产品行业的背景下。
