of the day dedicated to “Computer Ethics” (Ethics and Social Responsibility Information Technology)
Doctoral School of Politecnico di Torino is organizing an event dedicated to the study of issues related to the spread of computers in society.
The evolution of computer and information technology presents enormous opportunities for the improvement of many aspects of our lives but at the same time introduced new scenarios with controversial social and ethical implications.
It is therefore important to introduce, even in schools of engineering, a reflection on the social and ethical issues of technology. These issues are proposed, since the ’90s, in U.S. universities in inter-disciplinary departments (Science, Technology & Society “), in order to sensitize students to ethical issues that will face in their work, contributing to formation of complex shapes able to give a fair assessment of the social and ethical implications of technology.
