In recent years, we have witnessed significant advances of technology particularly in the areas of computing and telecommunication. We use these technologies in our everyday life and to perform our engineering tasks. In engineering, we use some of these technologies to improve our efficiency in materials, design, construction, and operation. Discuss the impact of these technologies in relation to materials you learned in this course such as professional ethics and personal ethics, engineers’ responsibility, society and technology, trust and reliability, risk and reliability, and the environment.
