Beyond Should´ve:
Ethics in Science and Education


Wednesday, 8 August 2007 - 10:30 to 13:00
IUPAC Congress Session 10 | Torino, Italy

Following the initiative of CCE Chair Peter Mahaffy, a symposium entitled: "Beyond Should´ve: Ethics in Science and Education" is being organized as part of the Congress. The Symposium continues the conversation and makes it concrete by asking key questions such as:
- What are key ethical issues that professional chemists should engage?
- What lessons can we learn from history?
- How can post-secondary and graduate chemistry education ensure that ethical issues are addressed in a constructive and compelling manner in the formation of chemistry professionals?
