A Culture of Ethics

Brad J. Kallenberg, Ph.D., is Professor of Theology & Ethics at the University of Dayton (OH) where he has pioneered a course in engineering ethics that compares ethics to engineering design. After studying chemistry, then physics, on a scholarship to the University of Minnesota, Kallenberg eventually shifted his attention to topics arising at the interface of science, engineering and theology. He holds a Ph.D. in Philosophical Theology from Fuller Theological Seminary and has authored and/or edited six books including Ethics as Grammar: Changing the Postmodern Subject (Notre Dame, IN: University of Notre Dame, 2001) and By Design: Theology, Ethics and the Practice of Engineering (Eugene, OR: Cascade Press, 2013). He has published a wide range of journal articles and book chapters, including “Rethinking Fideism through the Lens of Wittgenstein’s Engineering Outlook” (International Journal for the Philosophy of Religion).
