Ethics is central to science and engineering. Young engineers need to be grounded in how corporate social responsibility principles can be applied to engineering organizations to better serve the broader community. This is crucial in times of climate change and ecological challenges where the vulnerable can be impacted by engineering activities. Taking a global perspective in ethics education will help ensure that scientists and engineers can make a more substantial contribution to development throughout the world. This paper presents the importance of incorporating the global and cross culture components in the ethic education. The authors bring up a question to educators on ethics education in science and engineering in the globalized world, and its importance, necessity, and impendency. The paper presents several methods for discussion that can be used to identify the differences in ethics standards and practices in different countries; enhance the student's knowledge of ethics in a global arena.
道德规范是科学和工程学的核心。青年工程师需要了解企业社会责任原则如何应用于工程组织，以便更好地为更广泛的社区服务。在气候变化和生态挑战时期，这一点至关重要，因为弱势群体可能会受到工程活动的影响。在道德教育中采取全球视角将有助于确保科学家和工程师能够为全世界的发展做出更大的贡献。本文介绍了在道德教育中纳入全球和跨文化因素的重要性。作者向全球化世界中的科学和工程学教育工作者提出了一个关于道德教育的问题，以及它的重要性、必要性和紧迫性。本文提出了几种讨论方法，可以用来识别不同国家的道德标准和实践之间的差异；增强学生在全球舞台上的道德知识。
