Engineering ethics is that form of applied or professional ethics concerned with the conduct of engineers. Though engineers do many different things, they share a common history, which includes codes of ethics. Most codes explicitly declare public health, safety and welfare to be ‘paramount’. Many questions of engineering ethics concern interpretation of ‘public’, ‘safety’ and ‘paramount’. Engineers also have important obligations to client and employer, including confidentiality, proper response to conflict of interest, stewardship of resources, and honesty (not only avoiding false statements but volunteering certain information). Each engineer also has obligations to other engineers and to the profession as a whole.

Effective Procedures

The economics profession lags behind others in adopting policies to regulate conflict of interest. The purposes of conflict of interest regulations, which are often misunderstood, are to minimize bias in research and maintain confidence in the profession. With only minimal rules of professional ethics (such as those in the American Economics Association code), the work that economists publish and advice they give are at risk of manifesting analytic bias and generating public distrust. More effective procedures for regulating conflicts must go beyond disclosure. They include divesting, creating blind trusts, pooling multiple sources of support, and establishing an independent oversight bodies. Some relationships may have to be prohibited when the source of support is closely related to the research. Failure to deal with the challenge of conflict of interest is likely to undermine efforts to address the other serious problems the profession faces today.
