title = "A proposal for ethics in engineering inspired by macintyre{\textquoteright}s ethics of virtue at a Peruvian university",
abstract = "In the design of a curriculum of engineering, ethics are usually included as a course based on rules that emerge from ethic codes of professional associations of engineers. This study primarily aims to discuss whether rules are the core of ethics and if this approach for understanding ethics is meaningful for students as future professional engineers. The ethics of virtue, as argued by Alasdair MacIntyre, is an attempt to show that rules are only part of a more holistic comprehension of ethics that should have, as its main focus, the ideas of practice, virtue, and end. Inspired by these ideas, this study presents a proposal for a Peruvian university to understand ethics with a more meaningful connection with the practices and the culture of engineering.",
