| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The main purpose of this research is to make the roles and responsibilities of engineers as technical profession in environmental problems clear, by clarifying the scope of "environment" regarded as engineers should consider in engineering ethics. As a result of this research, the following two points were brought to light. First, in the field of engineering ethics, the concept of "environment" which regarded as one of the subject of concern of engineers is caught in a limited way. Second, "how much emphasis should be placed on the environmentally conscious obligation" is quite often changed relatively depending on the relationship with other value norms and the situation in reality. From now on, engineering ethics should take a broader perspective on the concept of "environment" and should reshape the idea of obligation of consideration for environment.
