Description
This session focuses on engineering ethics for transportation professionals. The session will provide an overview of core ethical principles, identifying ethical issues, creating a framework for resolving common ethical dilemmas and existing enforcement mechanisms. We will summarize several ethical challenges faced by practitioners to illustrate ethical components in a real-world environment. The fact situations are drawn from transportation and consulting engineering scenarios to illustrate such key components as protecting public health, safety and welfare, duties to clients, conflicts of interest, areas of competency, and avoiding deceptive acts. We will compare Code of Ethics published by professional associations, review Licensing Laws and Regulations and focus on common and some not so common statutory and regulatory provisions from the region including Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania..
