Editorial Preface

Bringing engineers and philosophers into deeper conversation allows for harmonization (constructing common knowledge) and synergy, and can serve as a community to guide and inform on society’s broader approach toward engineering and its governance. In this way, this special issue aims to gather high-level research at the intersection of philosophy and engineering domains to comprehensively index the current state-of-the-art research in the field of engineering ethics and engineering design as well as what future trends have made themselves apparent.
