    This course introduces the theory and the practice of engineering ethics using a multi-disciplinary and cross-cultural approach. Theory includes ethics and philosophy of engineering. Historical cases are taken primarily from the scholarly literatures on engineering ethics, and hypothetical cases are written by students. Each student will write a story by selecting an ancestor or mythic hero as a substitute for a character in a historical case. Students will compare these cases and recommend action.

    Probability is one of the most important disciplines in all of the sciences and also one of the least understood. Solution? Throw away intuition, and simply fall back to rigorous, step-by-step analysis.
