8. He/She can justify the necessities of engineering ethics courses 8  Ethics course prepares the students for professional life  It helps students to make decisions when controversial cases that include ethical considerations  Some skills that are acknowledged by public can be acquired: communication, questioning, giving right decision and so on.  It maintains students to find «the good» and «the right» choice by comparing different ideas on any subject  It helps you to understand the nature of professional responsibilities

9. He/She can justify the necessities of engineering ethics courses 9  It helps to distinguish the element of ethics in decision step  It helps to define and solve the engineering problems  It facilitates to develop professional critical thinking and judgment  It aims to acquire ethic awareness for future professional life

10. He/she can explain the rules of engineering ethics 10 1.
