What Do We Mean When We Write About Ethics, Equity, and Justice in Engineering Design? by Das, Madhurima, Roeder, Gillian, Ostrowski, Anastasia K, Yang, Maria C, Verma, Aditi

“…We conduct a review of three leading scholarly engineering design venues to investigate how, when, and why these terms — “ethics,” “equity,” and “justice,” and variations — appear in the engineering design literature and what scholars mean when they use them. We find that these terms are minimally present within the field’s scholarship and posit that design researchers may be using other terms to refer to their work that is aligned with principles of ethics, equity, and justice. …”
