Other Efforts

Embedded ethics and related work is happening in many places across the University of Toronto and beyond. This page points to some of these efforts.

E3I Outreach to Other Departments

Modules developed through E3I collaborations that run in courses outside Computer Science include:

  • EEB323 (Evolutionary Genetics) — Genetic Data and the Naturalistic Fallacy
  • GGR376 (Geovisualization) — Manipulation in Maps
  • HMB342 (Epidemiology of Health & Disease) — Manipulation in Data Visualizations

Some of these modules will be offered in 2026–27 under the auspices of the E3I offshoot Philosophical Embedded Ethics Program (PEEP).

Other Efforts At The University of Toronto

There are several embedded ethics efforts aside from E3I underway at the University of Toronto:

  • Department of Statistical Sciences — an ongoing effort in four classes (STA130, STA302, STA304, STA490) with modules on topics like algorithmic bias, statistical practice, the ethics of data collection, and the ethics of human research.
  • Mathematical and Computational Sciences @ University of Toronto Mississauga
  • Computational and Mathematical Sciences @ University of Toronto Scarborough
