Abstract Scope |
In the spirit of continuous improvement the ABET Engineering Accreditation Commission is continually evaluating if updates to the criteria are needed to insure that the criteria keep up with changes in requirements for the engineering profession. In this presentation, the transition to the recent changes in Criterion 3 (Student Outcomes) and Criterion 5 (Curriculum) that were implemented in the 2019-20 accreditation cycle, as well as other changes that are being considered, will also be discussed. |
