The "Philosophy of Technology" consists of critical reflection upon the nature of technology. In your essay, provide a moral argument for or against the following claim: "It is important for engineers to interact/engage/participate in/think through the philosophy of technology." Describe how the philosophy of technology is relevant to the profession of engineering, providing specific, concrete examples. What ideas and issues are raised in thinking philosophically about technology that might not otherwise be considered? What is the effect of either studying or not studying the philosophy of technology? And should engineering curricula (i. e. college degree pathways) include more or less of this kind of study?
