Abstract Scope |
After a decade of development, changes in Criterion 3 (Student Outcomes) and Criterion 5 (Curriculum) of the ABET Engineering Accreditation Criteria were implemented in the 2019-20 accreditation cycle. The response to these changes requires revisions to the outcome assessment processes and thus also impacts compliance with Criterion 4 (Continuous Improvement). In this presentation, the recent changes and responses to these changes will be discussed. |
