Conference paperPublication Metadata only ETHICS-2021 Special Session 1: Corporate social responsibility and engineering education: ETHICS-202l Special Session, Thursday October 28,2021,3:00-4:30 PM ET(IEEE, 2021) Zhu, Q.; Martini, L.; McClelland, C.; Battalora, L.; Rulifson, G.; Kleine, M. S.; West, S.; Lucena, J.; İlhan, Ali Oğulcan; Claussen, S.; Geiger, R.; Smith, J. M.; Industrial Design; İLHAN, Ali OğulcanCorporate social responsibility has a chameleon-like character. It exists as part of a larger ecology of related concepts: sustainability, corporate citizenship, business accountability, social performance, sustainable development, creating shared value, and ESG (environmental, social and governance). Its definition shifts by industry, geographic context, and company invoking the term. Some academics dismiss CSR as greenwash, while others uncritically treat it as a silver bullet for reconciling ethics and economics, morality and the market. This roundtable session highlights current research and practice on training engineers to navigate CSR as a heterogeneous and ethically complex field of practice. The roundtable will feature brief presentations on each topic and then be opened to discussion. Topics range from findings from a five-year research project that infused ethnographic research on CSR into engineering curricula at four different universities, to theories of 'relational CSR,' to assessments of the professional prospects for 'engineers for good' in the corporate job market.EditorialPublication Metadata only Special Issue on the Second International Workshop on Micro- and Nano-Scale Thermal Radiation(Elsevier, 2015-06) Zhang, Z.; Liu, L.; Zhu, Q.; Mengüç, Mustafa Pınar; Mechanical Engineering; MENGÜÇ, Mustafa PınarMicro- and nano-scale thermal radiation has become one of the fastest growing research areas because of advances in nanotechnology and the development of novel materials. The related research and development includes near-field radiation transfer, spectral and directional selective emitters and receivers, plasmonics, metamaterials, and novel nano-scale fabrication techniques. With the advances in these areas, important applications in energy harvesting such as solar cells and thermophotovoltaics, nanomanufacturing, biomedical sensing, thermal imaging as well as data storage with the localized heating/cooling have been pushed to higher levels.
