Abstract

This article sought to emphasize the importance of “Ethics Inclusion” in the curriculum of STEM Education at all levels in Nigeria. Ethics is a science of character that deals with human judgments and social relationships. If ethnics is incorporated into the curriculum, STEM will be well positioned as a national training ground for responsible and ethical thinking, hence, students will be adequately prepared to engage in ethical decision making, thus contributing to a safe and secured future. Therefore, this paper proposes that Ethics should no longer be kept as a hidden curriculum, but be made a compulsory school subject right from the primary school up to postgraduate level.
