Essay:

The Importance of Ethics in the Engineering Sector

Engineers are the engines of the modern world. They are the people that keep the
world operative through various constructions, inventions, discoveries and
manufacturing. They are the creators of civilizations.
An engineer should have the ability and judgement to refine ones behaviors,
decisions and actions in performing the duty to the family, organization and to the
society. Thus, he has to often make difficult choices while performing his
responsibilities. A set of beliefs, attitudes and habits is thus essential for an engineer
so that he is able to make the correct decisions. Ethics are, therefore, the guiding
principles to the decision making capability of an engineer.
An engineer needs to be a free thinker. He needs to be an intellectual who has the
proficiency in recognizing moral problems in engineering, comprehend and assess
those views from different viewpoints, become receptive to creating solutions
against those problems and communicate his solutions to everybody concerned.
Ethics help in improving this cognitive skill of an individual while performing his
everyday duties.
Moral reasonableness, respect for others, tolerance for diversity and integrity are
significant aspects that makes an engineer not only a successful professional but
also a good human being. He should be willing and able to be morally responsible,
show concern for the well-being of others besides himself, respect for ethnic and
religious differences and have a high moral integrity.
Thus, ethics in engineering ensures economy, productivity, safety, privacy, security,
welfare and offers opportunities for all without discrimination. Vales and virtues are
cultivated and appreciated by all human beings. These, therefore, becomes even
more important to an engineer who is always in the midst of the common people
discharging his responsibilities. Ethics not only improve quality of an individual but
the quality of life as a whole.
