Abstract
PONCE-CORREA, Andrés Mauricio; OSPINA-OSPINA, Alexander Alonso and CORREA-GUTIERREZ, Rosa Elvira. Curriculum analysis of ethics in engineering: a case study. Dyna rev.fac.nac.minas [online]. 2022, vol.89, n.spe222, pp.67-73. Epub Sep 22, 2022. ISSN 0012-7353. https://doi.org/10.15446/dyna.v89n222.101800.
For several decades, there have been warnings about certain ethical faults in engineers regarding corruption in different works, which lead to collapses and the death of people, calling engineering into question and affecting the social development of communities. Ethics is an educational responsibility, the ethical debate must take place inside and outside the classroom, since studies carried out in different universities indicate that ethics continues to be a pending subject in engineering programs. This study seeks to contribute to educational innovation for the teaching of ethics in engineering through documentary review and interviews with students and teachers. It was found that the education of ethics in engineering should be included in the curriculum as an important factor in the training of engineers, from a practical dimension, which includes the study of cases, moral dilemmas, and based on problems applied to the environment.
