## Case Studies
The Software Engineering Ethics Research Institute of the Department of Computer and Information Sciences at East Tennessee State University published a series of Case Studies to help sensitize practicing software developers and students to the various types of ethical dilemmas they may face. [The International Standard for Professional Software
Development and Ethical Responsibility](http://seeri.etsu.edu/TheSECode.htm) forms the basis for much of the analysis in each case.
