All professional practices inevitably involve ethical concerns. Many professional organizations have thus established and implemented professional code of ethics as an ethical guideline for their practitioners. The code of ethics also serves as criteria for the public to scrutinize the professional conduct as well as an educational reference for schools in cultivating future professionals. In sum, professional code of ethics is the foundation of ethical guidance in practice and education. However there is yet no written code of ethics in the design professional organizations in Taiwan. This paper, therefore, proposes a draft of code of design ethics for Taiwan as a steppingstone to the development and promotion of design ethics. Firstly, a content analysis was conducted on the ethics codes of selected design professional organizations, listing all related ethical issues with respect to the concerned stakeholders. Those ethic issues were then translated into Chinese for questionnaire construction. The questionnaire, after pilot test and revision, was then used in a formal two-stage survey. Stage I survey focused on the opinions from various types of design stakeholders using general public as the survey population; Stage II focused on the opinions of college students from different design fields. Undergraduate students of the 5 departments from the College of Design of National Yunlin University of Science and Technology were used as the surveyed sample. Based on the results, a draft of code of design ethics for Taiwan was composed. This paper proposes the implementation of such code of design ethics in Taiwan, with recommendations for further effort to address the issues of design ethics in practice and education.
