History of the Code of Ethics for Engineers (3):
The material contained in the "History of the NSPE Code of Ethics" is
being provided solely for historic purposes. Previous versions of the
NSPE Code of Ethics and NSPE Canons of Ethics can be provided to
assist professional engineers and others in enhancing their understanding
of past and present ethics language and is not intended to express current
NSPE positions or positions on matters of professional ethics.
The first reference to a Society Code of Ethics is found in the May 1935
issue of The American Engineer in the form of a suggestion for
membership consideration. It is not clear whether the Society's Board of
Directors ever adopted or acted upon the Suggested Code.
September 1948 - The Board adopted a motion to urge the state societies
to adopt revised Canons of Ethics for Engineers as published in the
November 1947 issue of The American Engineer. This version differs
from that published in January 1947.
June 1952 - The Board adopted 15 Rules of Ethical Conduct,
presumably to supplement the Canons of Ethics, although this is not
explicitly stated.
February 1961 - The Board approved a change in the Rules of
Professional Conduct to change Rule 49 re competitive bidding and to
change Rule 50 to prescribe procedure when an engineer is asked for a
proposal.
January 1965 - Section 11(c) of the Code of Ethics was amended to add
the word "engineering" prior to "services" to clarify that the Section
does not apply to combined engineering and construction work.
January 1966 - Board approved amendments to Section 8(c) of the Code
of Ethics to delete the two words, "or advisor," and to add a sentence re
a conflict of interest.
January 1968 - The Board approved the deletion of the last sentence of
Section 11(c), pertaining to overseas engineering ("When in Rome"
clause).
January 1971 - The Board approved a revision of Section 3, pertaining to
advertising. Also, the Board approved the printing of a footnote with the
Code pertaining to application of the Code to corporations.
July 1976 - The Board approved a change which deleted Section 9(a)
which stated "He will not undertake or agree to perform any engineering
service on a free basis except for civic, charitable, religious or
eleemosynary nonprofit organizations when the professional services are
advisory in nature," and added Section 11 which stated "An engineer
will not use 'free engineering' as a device to solicit or otherwise secure
paid engineering assignments."
July 1978 - Section 11(c) relating to the selection of engineering firms
was deleted and Section 11 was altered to delete the words "by
competitive bidding" in the first paragraph of the section. The words "or
fee" were deleted from Section 11(e). The Board also approved a change
which deleted Section 9(a) of the Code addressing the issue of
appropriate and adequate compensation for those engaged in engineering
work. Section 3, relating to avoidance of conduct likely to discredit the
profession by making misleading, deceptive, or false claims,
misrepresentations was clarified.
July 1979 - The Board approved changes which added Section 7(b)
admonishing against related services for a private party following public
employment of an engineer. Sections 8 and 8(a) were replaced with a
new Section 8 which provided clearer guidance relating to conflicts of
interest and the disclosure of known conflicts to the employer and the
clients. The Board also approved a change to renumber Section 10
dealing with the issue of conflict of interest to become Section 9. Section
11(b) relating to payments, political contributions, gifts, and other
considerations in order to secure work was refined. Section 1(d) was
altered to permit employed engineers to accept outside employment if it
is not detrimental to the interests of their employer and to require such
employee to notify the employer where such outside employment will
constitute a conflict of interest or will be to the detriment of the regular
work of the engineer. Finally, the Board approved the deletion of
Section 11(a) relating to the supplanting of one engineer by another
engineer.
July 1981 - Section III(6)(c), restricting engineers in sales employment
from giving engineering advice or designs other than specifically related
to equipment being sold by them or their firm, was deleted. Section
III(8) relating to the ethical duty of engineers to report the suspected
illegal practice of engineering to the proper authorities, was amended to
delete the words "other engineer," and the word "others" was substituted
in their place.
January 1985 - The Board approved a change in Section II(2)(c) to add
the word "only" following the word "sealed" in the last line. To conform
with Florida registration law.
January 1987 - Fundamental Canon 5 was amended by deleting the word
"improper" and adding "deceptive acts." Rules of Practice No. 5 were
amended by deleting the word "improper" and adding "deceptive acts."
Section III (3) (a) was amended by deleting the word "statements"
(second sentence) and substituting the word "or" after "misleading."
Section III (6) (b) present wording deleted and changed to "Engineers,
when employing other engineers, shall offer a salary according to
professional qualifications." Section III (7) present wording deleted and
changed to "Engineers shall not attempt to obtain employment or
advancement or professional engagements by untruthfully criticizing
other engineers, or by other improper or questionable methods." Section
III(7)(b) present wording deleted and changed to "Engineers in salaried
positions shall accept part-time engineering work only to the extent
consistent with policies of the employer and in accordance with ethical
considerations. Section III(8) was amended by deleting the word
"indiscriminately" and substituting the word "untruthfully."
January 1990 - NSPE Board approved a change in Section II.4.d. To add
"or quasi-governmental" after the word "governmental" to the clarify the
distinction between the two entities.

Code of Ethics: Addition of Fundamental Canon I.6 relating to engineers
conducting themselves honorably and responsibly; Removal of III.6
relating to appropriate and adequate compensation and subsequent
paragraphs renumbered; and, removal of III.11 relating to cooperating in
information exchanges.

Code of Ethics: Deletion of Section III.1.e. "Engineers shall not actively
participate in strikes, picket lines, or other collective coercive action."

January 2006 -- The NSPE Board approved a new section (III.2.d.) to
the Code of Ethics that reads: "Engineers shall strive to adhere to the

development" is the challenge of meeting human needs for natural
resources, industrial products, energy, food, transportation, shelter, and
effective waste management while conserving and protecting
environmental quality and the natural resource base essential for future
development.
