91¶ÌÊÓƵ

ABET Accreditation

The 91¶ÌÊÓƵ Electrical Engineering and Computer Engineering programs are accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, , under the commission’s General Criteria and Program Criteria for Electrical, Computer, Communications, Telecommunication(s) and Similarly Named Engineering Programs.

Program Educational Objectives


The Objectives of the ECE undergraduate programs in Electrical and Computer Engineering are to educate graduates to become productive, accountable, and responsible professionals in engineering who will:

  1. Apply their engineering skills, through theory and application, in industry, government, society, or in graduate school;
  2. Practice high technical and ethical standards and communicate their work to colleagues, industry, and professional organizations;
  3. Work effectively and contribute in interdisciplinary fields while encouraging expression;
  4. Understand the importance of lifelong learning and continuous professional growth in a changing world, as shown through self-directed learning, specialized training, certifications, licensing, and graduate programs.

The program educational objectives for both the Electrical and Computer Engineering programs shall be presented, discussed, and possibly amended at the annual meeting of the Industrial Advisory Board in even-numbered years. The objective is to ensure that the program educational objectives remain consistent with the institutional mission, the constituents’ needs, and the accrediting board criteria.

 

Student Outcomes

 

Student outcomes describe what students are expected to know and be able to do by graduation. Graduates of the 91¶ÌÊÓƵ Electrical and Computer Engineering Programs will have:

  1. An ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics
  2. An ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors
  3. An ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences
  4. An ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts
  5. An ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives
  6. An ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions
  7. An ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.
