This book explored perceptions of ethics
held by the engineering students at the Auckland University
of Technology (AUT), and identified any implications this
has for the teaching of ethics in the AUT engineering
courses. The research, based within the interpretivist
paradigm, used a combination of quantitative and
qualitative data to identify the perceptions students have
of ethics, particularly in relation to engineering. The
research was an exploratory study in nature, the main data
collection tool being a purpose-designed questionnaire that
sought students' views of ethics, ethics in engineering,
and the factors that influenced these views.
