Topic 2: Engineering Code of Ethics

Post by Sunny Dhanjal


Engineering has a set of ethics that must be followed by all engineering fields. According to the National Society of Professional Engineers(NSPE), all members of the profession must follow a code of ethics. In this document, all engineers are required to show the highest of standards of honesty and integrity. Along with that, they are all required to use their expertise to help the the general public in health, safety and welfare. This code of ethics is meant to make sure that all engineers use their skills for good and to provide a fair opportunity for all engineers. I did not know that engineers followed a code of ethics. For me, this is a important because a code of ethics provides a basis for all engineers. I believe this will keep everything fair in the work place. This code also ensures that engineers can be trusted in the work that they put out. If engineers can not be trusted, then their work does not mean anything to the general public.
