Hello everyone,
My name is Mitch Troy and I am a Senior at the University of Notre Dame. I am currently pursuing a Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science with a minor in Engineering Corporate Practice. I am not sure exactly what I want to do with my computer science degree once I graduate, but am weighing the possibility of getting my MBA. Outside of programming, I am very active in Notre Dame's Music community, playing in the saxophone in the marching band and various other ensembles.
In this class, I hope to learn more about how to respond to the various moral problems we will face in the workforce and how to approach them. I know that there is often never a completely correct solution to these problems (eg. is it morally wrong to write software that benefits our military capabilities) but it is always beneficial to at least be aware of these issues.
The issue that I am currently most interested in is data security. With so much data being collected from us every day both with and without our knowledge, I'd like to think more deeply about the tough choices those who parse and analyze that data face.
