Engineering Ethics is honestly a pretty boring class in terms of its subject matter. The most interesting parts of it are when real-life engineering ethical scenarios arise, and we are able to have discussions about the course content and its applications to real life. However, most of the course content is just terminology and applications of different ethical schools of thought. Professor Pappas, while he can be a bit of an eccentric rambler, is extremely kind and flexible when it comes to course assignments and deadlines. He gives many opportunities for extra credit throughout the semester, and depending on your final grade the final exam can become optional. In terms of the course assignments, there are twice-weekly discussion posts and multiple writing assignments throughout the semester. There are also multiple group presentation projects throughout the semester. Overall, the course can be enjoyable if you make the most of it.
