Abstract :
The IEEE has Taken some important Steps to encourage the ethical practice of engineering. These include the adoption of a code of engineering ethics, filing of the amieus curiae brief in the BART case, the award (by CSIT) to the 3 BART engineers for Outstanding Service in the Publie Interests enactment of Bylaw 112 (see 12/77 issue of T&S for background) which includes measures for assisting engineers placed in jeopardy as a result of adhering to the code of ethics uni, finally, the application of the aforementioned measures in the Edgerton case (see 6/78 issue of T&S). But much more remains to be done.
