ALLIANCE: YOU WORK WITH SOME OF THE NATION’S MOST TALENTED STUDENTS AT GEORGIA TECH. WHAT DO YOU SEE AS THE BIGGEST CHALLENGE YOUR STUDENTS FACE IN THE TRANSITION FROM WORK IN ACADEMIA TO WORK AS EMPLOYEES IN TECH COMPANIES?

Nassim Parvin Our students want to make a positive change, but they are often ill-equipped to deal with ethical issues because they see ethics as their personal moral responsibility. They think that as long as they are committed to doing the right thing they will be able to do it. And that doing the right thing is obvious. Whereas when they go out in the world, they can't always make all the decisions. And even when they can, it's not always clear what problem that they are trying to address and how they might address it. I often go back to the failure of our educational institutions when we teach subject matter expertise to students but fail to accompany it with ways of thinking about ethical issues.
