2. New Engineer: Ethics And Planned Obsolescence
By the 1950s planned obsolescence had become routine and engineers worriedover the ethics of deliberately designing products of inferior quality.
http://www.uow.edu.au/arts/sts/sbeder/columns/engcol8.html
The New Engineer
Is planned obsolescence socially responsible?
Sharon Beder
This is article was published as Sharon Beder, "Is planned obsolescence socially responsible?", Engineers Australia , November 1998, p. 52.
This is a final version submitted for publication. Minor editorial changes may have subsequently been made.
In the 1930s an enterprising engineer working for General Electric proposed increasing sales of flashlight lamps by increasing their efficiency and shortening their life. Instead of lasting through three batteries he suggested that each lamp last only as long as one battery. In 1934 speakers at the Society of Automotive Engineers meetings proposed limiting the life of automobiles. These examples and others are cited in Vance Packard's classic book The Waste Makers. By the 1950s planned obsolescence had become routine and engineers worried over the ethics of deliberately designing products of inferior quality. The conflict between profits and engineering objectives were apparent. The fear of market saturation seemed to require such methods to ensure a prosperous economy, yet the consumer was being sold inferior products that could have been made more durable for little extra cost. In an editorial in Design News toward the end of the fifties, E. S. Safford asked whether engineers should resist the philosophy of planned obsolescence if their management commissioned a 'short-term product' and argued that they should not: "Planned existence spans of product may well become one of the greatest economic boosts to the American economy since the origination of time payments." What was required, he argued was "a new look at old engineering ethics". Instead of trying to build the best, the lightest, the fastest and the cheapest, engineers should be able to apply their skills to building shoddy articles that would fall apart after a short amount of time, all in the interests of the market.

The clauses that are included in the full version give examples and details of how these aspirations change the way we act as software engineering professionals. Without the aspirations, the details can become legalistic and tedious; without the details, the aspirations can become high sounding but empty; together, the aspirations and the details form a cohesive code. Software engineers shall commit themselves to making the analysis, specification, design, development, testing and maintenance of software a beneficial and respected profession. In accordance with their commitment to the health, safety and welfare of the public, software engineers shall adhere to the following Eight Principles: PUBLIC - Software engineers shall act consistently with the public interest.

That's translated over eleven-plus years and dozens of spinoff groups into discussions of topics like those given in the FAQs here, as well as computer software, jobs, reference books, measurement devices, methodologies, working environments, and almost everything else the engineer faces. What the students say about Ron Graham's Rhetoric classes What the students mean He's a good guy.
Nice guy, and gives a fair amount of work.
Some of us are easy to get along with. He can be a harsh grader, and his lectures can be boring...
I was bored often. A decent guy, but the class would probably suck no matter who taught.
A three-hour class is too long on this stuff. The instructor emphasized class participation, even when no-one wanted to participate, which was good. A three-hour class is too long though!

The 2004 NSPE Milton F. Lunch Ethics Contest Invitation
All current NSPE individual members, NSPE state societies, and NSPE chapters (including student chapters) are invited to participate in the 2004 NSPE Milton F. Lunch Ethics Contest. Match your wits with experienced professional engineers and engineering students throughout the country! What Is To Be Done?
NSPE's Board of Ethical Review (BER) is furnishing you with a real FACT situation that involves a professional engineer who applies for a position with an engineering firm and is required to answer a question on an employment application, asking "have you ever been disciplined in the practice of professional engineering or had his license suspended or revoked?". Given the FACTS, you are asked a QUESTION about the ethics of the engineer. Contestants are encouraged to read and discuss the FACTS of the case and answer to the QUESTION. Then you are to develop DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS using the format of the NSPE Board of Ethical Review. You are also to give REFERENCES citing specific sections of the NSPE Code of Ethics for Engineers. (Click here for a copy of the NSPE Code and a sample BER case (demonstrating the format) for your reference). You may also want to check these Web sites for additional cases decided by the BER:

THINKING LIKE AN ENGINEER: THE PLACE OF A CODE OF ETHICS
IN THE PRACTICE OF A PROFESSION
Michael Davis
Most discussions of engineering ethics dismiss the idea of codes of ethics from the outset. Codes are described as self-serving, unrealistic, inconsistent, mere guides for novices, too vague, or unnecessary.(1) I will not do that here. Instead, I will argue that a code of professional ethics is central to advising individual engineers how to conduct themselves, to judging their conduct, and ultimately to understanding engineering as a profession. I will begin with a case now commonly discussed in engineering ethics, finding my general argument in a detailed analysis of a particular choice. While I believe the analysis to be applicable to all professions, I shall not argue that here.
I. THE CHALLENGER DISASTER(2)
On the night of 27 January 1986, Robert Lund was worried. The Space Center was counting down for a shuttle launch the next morning. Lund, vice-president for engineering at Morton Thiokol, had earlier presided over a meeting of engineers that unanimously recommended against the launch. He had concurred and informed his boss, Jerald Mason. Mason informed the Space Center. Lund had expected the flight to be postponed. The Center's safety record was good. It was good because the Center would not allow a launch unless the technical people approved. Lund had not approved. He had not approved because the temperature at the launch site would be close to freezing at lift-off. The Space Center was worried about the ice already forming in places on the boosters, but Lund's worry was the "O-rings" sealing the boosters' segments. They had been a great idea, permitting Thiokol to build the huge rocket in Utah and ship it in pieces to the Space Center two thousand miles away. Building in Utah was so much more efficient than building on-site that Thiokol had been able to underbid the competition. The shuttle contract had earned Thiokol $150 million in profits.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
A project such as this cannot be the work of just one person. Although, as principal investigator, I accept full responsibility for the flaws in the project, credit for whatever merits it has must be shared with many others. First and foremost, I thank the more than 50 practicing engineers for their time and thoughtfulness in providing us with illustrations that gave us ideas for our case studies. The interviews ranged from one hour to more than five hours with an engineer who met with us on two occasions. One company provided us with access to its employees for an entire working day. Not only did these engineers provide us with a wealth of ideas, their enthusiasm for our project was a continual source of support. Special thanks go to my co-principal investigator, James Jaksa (Communication), who shared interviewing responsibilities for the project (even sacrificing a week-long Spring Break to talk with engineers). He also wrote preliminary drafts of many of the cases. My Philosophy colleagues John Dilworth and Joseph Ellin served as consultants on the project. John Dilworth designed the software shell for the case studies and provided commentary on twenty cases. He also tried out many of the cases in his business ethics classes. Joseph Ellin wrote commentaries on more than twenty-five of the cases. In addition, I had two graduate assistants during the three years of the project. David Zacker assisted during the first two years of the project. He helped John Dilworth with the software design, created program files for cases, interviewed engineers, and wrote earlier versions of cases. Charles Marsh assisted in the third year, refining the software versions of cases and helping prepare the final set of materials available for classroom use.

Ethics Education for the Military Engineer
by - Major Mark L. Nowack USAF
I. INTRODUCTION II. ENCOURAGING ETHICAL ENGINEERING PRACTICE Concern for ethical behavior in the civilian engineering profession has grown tremendously in recent years. The profession is attempting to clarify the responsibilities and rights of engineers, and provide some measure of protection for engineers, thereby encouraging ethical choices in difficult situations. A common approach to incorporating ethical practice into the engineering profession has been the development of a code of practice. As early as 1912, codes of practice have been employed primarily to clarify professional responsibilities and expectations. More recent codes also address responsibility to the public interest such as truth, honesty, and fairness. In other words, they are designed to help the practicing engineer make moral decisions, but they do a poor job of this. Codes can be problematic since they are sometimes restrictively short, self-conflicting, and have limited legal authority. Moreover, their proliferation tends to compartmentalize professional ethics. They apply narrowly to the engineering practice concerned. That is, their scope may not include the issues faced, say, by the engineer in management. In light of these problems, it is noteworthy that industry is calling on the education system to provide additional ethical training for future engineers.

Reviews: Rating: No Rating Ethics hearing on former town engineer postponed Beverly Corbell bcorbell@theadvertiser.com August 20, 2003 YOUNGSVILLE — A complaint filed with the Louisiana Ethics Board last year against engineer Walter Comeaux III, originally set for public hearing Aug. 15, has been rescheduled to November. Lafayette Parish resident Deborah Clothier filed a complaint in June 2002 accusing Comeaux of an ethics violation, claiming he approved his own work when he was town engineer for Youngsville. Comeaux’s tenure ended when Mayor Wilson Viator took office at the beginning of the year. Clothier, who lives in Twin Oaks subdivision just off La. 92 and Verot School Road, said construction on nearby Southlake Plantation subdivision ruined the drainage in her back yard. Comeaux was hired as project engineer for Southlake by developer Cordell Castette of Village Builders, Viator said. He said that he also worried about a possible conflict of interest. “Walter was town engineer under the old administration and was at that time doing engineering work for the town, plus also doing engineering work for developers,” he said. “Some of the council members questioned whether it was ethical — him representing both sides.”

Engineering Ethics Dr. Jamie Smith Department of Philosophy, Loyola Marymount University SYLLABUS POSTINGS LINKS CASES ... PROJECT GROUP CASE STUDY PROJECT
Developed by James K.A. Smith
The capstone assignment in this course on Engineering Ethics will be a group presentation based on a selected case study in engineering ethics. Rather than choosing historical cases and have students engaged in mere ethical "assessment," we will use "open-ended" cases which require students to exercise actual ethical judgment. In 1949, Stuart Hampshire observed that many courses in ethics using case studies only teach students to be the ethical counterpart of art critics rather than the ethical counterpart of artists. Our goal is not to simply be ethical spectators, but ethical actors . These cases are meant to be a kind of "practice" for work-environment decisions engineers will face. As such, the cases do not focus on catastrophic disasters, but rather the more mundane decisions that face engineers in everyday practice. Working in groups also lends a 'real-world' flavor to the project, since most engineering decisions are made as part of a team. REQUIREMENTS 1. Each group will consist of three or four students who will be responsible for planning and leading a 20-25 minute class presentation on a case in engineering ethics, and managing discussion afterwards. Students will form their own groups and submit a group list to the instructor by the date specified below (see

Engineering Ethics
There are sets of rules of conduct that have been established by the engineering community that outline the obligations of professional (registered) engineers to society, to employers and clients, and to fellow engineers. These rules are established in our attempt to safeguard life, health, and property, to promote the public welfare, and to maintain a high standard of integrity. Since the rules are binding on all registered engineers, it is the responsibility of each engineer to be familiar with the rules. In addition to the rules, each registered engineer must meet standards of high moral and ethical conduct when practicing the engineering profession. Each state maintains the right and obligation to enforce such rules of conduct by assessing penalties when such rules are broken.
Engineering registration is a privilege and not a right. It is a privilege to practice engineering in the area or areas of competence in which certification has been granted. This privilege demands that engineers responsibly represent themselves before the public in a truthful and objective manner.
Engineers must compete fairly with others and avoid all conflicts of interest while faithfully serving the legitimate needs and interests of their employers and clients. The following points summarize Engineering Ethics.
