The importance of engineering ethics education is clearly recognized in the CDIO Syllabus (e.g., Version 2.0, 2.5) as well as by various national engineering education accreditation standards. This paper describes how engineering ethics education is integrated into the engineering program with the so-called “ethics-across-the-curriculum” approach at a Japanese technical university.
