My Particular Contribution
Group Members: Francis Aguinaldo, Roel Alto, Rowell Domondon

Our group concentrated on the aspect of Business vs. Safety in the engineering
industry. The ethical theory of Utilitarianism was my particular contribution to the group.
My main objective was to describe John Stuart Mill’s approach to Utilitarianism. The
greatest amount of happiness for the greatest amount of people was the focus of my input
in the presentation. I was given a case of antenna failure and the malfunction of cruise
control on cars. I had to determine Mill’s standpoint in these types of situations. Another
important matter I brought up was the engineer’s point of view of the two cases that were
given.
