What makes design ethical? By exploring the real-world factors and practical circumstances in which design emerges, this course will consider the ethics of how people make and rely on the products and services that shape our experience of the modern world. Our examination of theoretical approaches to designs social impacts, our discussion of case studies that illuminate designs role in the pursuit of social justice, and our reflections on our own responsibility to design things ethically will provide a comprehensive picture of the conditions that both catalyze and thwart ethical design. Students will leave this course with concrete ideas for how they might play consequential roles in developing ethical designs that positively impact society.
