It's a shame SEAS makes this useless class as required. Waste of precious time of people should be considered unethical.

Why is this class mandatory for engineering majors? This class needs to get rid of the essay portion or the discussion section because we learned the material in English and the ethics "ideas" are useless. The lecture material and the midterm and exams are more than enough for a class like this. All of my friends and I practically BS the two essays (basically submitted our first draft) and we all got perfect scores and so did a lot of others. If the essays were technical reports and not another English essay then it might be something useful for our careers. Many other top engineering schools don't even have an "ethics" class but have a technical writing course. What a waste of my time.

Take his 183ew summer, really useless full of crap time consuming class. At beginning more than 100 students sitting, after first week 30 students there, then 15. There two exam 2 paper and a team paper. TA supposed to help write those papers, but they fooled around, I took three TA, all crap. The last one I think her name magen or something. The whole section read paper, then each of you express comments, done. She just observed there do nothing. I want my money back! I don’t understand UCLA recurring him as teacher and offer such course as must finish engineering course

In ALL case studies, it's always the management's fault and yet this class is "Engineering Ethics". Ridiculous.

The best worst class to take to fulfill the so-called "ethics" requirement for engineers. Thankfully I took this class when everything was online as it made many aspects of this class tolerable. This class should have just been the lecture material with nothing else. Making us write argumentative essays through a "ethical" perspective creates a redundancy as we already did identical assignments in previous English classes. This doesn't help with a zealous TA who wasted my discussion sections time by spending the full discussion time. This asininity made this class feel like we're taking 2 different classes. But thankfully, we didn't have to do the group project, which again made things more tolerable.
Asides from the essays, there is a midterm and a final. Just search through the textbook or try to get old exams. No homework and attendance isn't mandatory like before. This class really should have just been the lecture without the writing portion. Could have been like a simple GE class, but they just had to shove in more useless padding. Also, I highly highly recommend you take this class during the Summer with your friends. I'm not sure if they'll bring back the group project so, try to get into the same section.

Quarter: Spring 2022

Only reason this class didn't suck as much as everyone says was because the TA (Leon) gave us more freedom to get stuff done at home instead of having to sit in the discussion for the full 3 hours, which actually made the discussions much more productive since everyone hadn't completely checked out.

The prof is actually really nice and his lectures were actually interesting, but it's hard to really care since this is either an early class. Essays were annoying but not the worst. Just pray for a good TA and you'll probably end up having a decent time
