The 2010 Forum on Philosophy, Engineering & Technology (fPET-2010) just received word from Philip A.E. Brey (U. Twente), President of the Society for Philosophy & Technology (www.spt.org), that SPT has agreed to sponsor fPET-2010.  Similar cooperative arrangements were in place with SPT for the WPE events, but as part of this new arrangement, SPT will name a member of the fPET steering committee and a number of members to the fPET program committee.

fPET already has many SPT members among the  ranks of its organizers.  This past summer, SPT held a special reflective engineers track that attracted a number of provocative submissions and excellent attendance, and this new agreement between fPET and SPT continues the building cooperation between philosophers and engineers begun with WPE-2007.
