Micro-ethics in engineering focuses on engineers' personal responsibility and professional ethics, while the rapid development of science and technology stimulates the extensively double spiral between project creation and social development, but the impact of engineering on human and nature shows a runaway trend. Therefore, it is imperative to construct macro-ethics in engineering panoramically from the perspective of engineering community groups. This transformation from micro-ethics to macro-ethics includes four aspects: the relationship between overall project and society;engineers' professional responsibility in a broader, social context; the influence of engineering decision-making in sociopolitical level; the effort of providing high- quality and sustainable environment for future generations. This will be helpful for engineers to put the codes of ethics about using their knowledge and skills to promote human welfare into practice, and for making engineering meet human's "near by" expectation and "far vision" concern.
