1. You are an engineer working for an oil company. The company locates a gas field near a historic trail used by settlers in the westward migration. Local citizens are upset by the prospect of drilling and transporting the gas, as the trail is of historic significance and its ecology will be destroyed. Discuss the issues involved and factors that you would use in trying to resolve the conflict.
2. You have an opportunity to work for a defense contractor at an attractive salary with many of the benefits you want in a professional workplace. A problem with the position is that you will have to work on weapons systems. What ethical questions should you resolve, if any? Would accepting the job violate a section of the NSPE Code of Ethics?
3. Nearing graduation, a college senior decides to interview at a company in another state for a job that he has no intention of taking. He accepts the expense-paid trip. What elements of the NSPE Code of Ethics are involved?
