Abstract
The main purpose of this study is to introduce and examine a teaching method aiming to connect environmental ethics with engineering ethics. Over the past few decades, ethics and consideration of environmental factors has been regarded as one of the most important competencies in the realm of engineering education, but adequate attention has not been given to the relationship between environmental ethics and engineering ethics. For improving this current situation, author brought a local case, concerned with the schistosomiasis japonica eradication activities in the Chikugo river basin, into the class offered in the National Institute of Technology, Kurume College. Feedbacks partly show that students improved their comprehension and acquired multifaceted viewpoints on environmental problem as a result of this approach.
