Ethics Education in Science and Engineering (EESE) - NSF 08-530

Program Abstract

The Ethics Education in Science and Engineering (EESE) program accepts proposals for research and educational projects to improve ethics education in all of the fields of science and engineering that the National Science Foundation (NSF) supports, especially in interdisciplinary or inter-institutional contexts. Proposals must focus on improving ethics education for graduate students in those fields, although the proposed programs may benefit advanced undergraduates in addition to graduate students. Participating directorates are the Directorate for Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences, Division of Social and Economic Sciences; the Directorate for Biological Sciences; the Directorate for Computer and Information Science and Engineering; the Directorate for Education and Human Resources; the Directorate for Engineering; the Directorate for Geosciences; and the Directorate for Mathematical and Physical Sciences.
