GILEE

 
 

GILEE is a graduate interdisciplinary liberal engineering ethics curriculum developed at Virginia Tech by a team of engineering science, engineering, humanities and business educators. It is a project supported by the National Science Foundation Ethics Education in Science and Engineering program.  Our team includes Professors Ishwar K. Puri, Vinod K. Lohani, Roop L. Mahajan, Joseph Pitt, and Richard E. Wokutch.


The GILEE curriculum addresses how issues of engineering ethics and cultural identities are intertwined within a globalized workplace. Our transformative graduate curriculum eliminates an important disconnect between contemporary ethical issues in technology and engineering practice. It is a collaborative effort with the Virginia Tech Graduate School and its dean, Dr. Karen P. DePauw.
