How our ABET Accreditation Management System can simplify assessment & continually improve your engineering programs

Why ABET Accreditation matters to institutions?

The ABET (Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology Inc) is a highly reputed not-for-profit, non-governmental accrediting agency in applied science, computing, engineering and engineering technology. The ABET accreditation has been received by over 600 institutions in the US alone and by institutions in more than 30 countries making it a reputed program. 

ABET Accreditation Process

The ABET accreditation program is outcome based and focuses on continuous improvement. The ABET comprises of four commissions who will carry out the accreditations for specific program areas and degree levels. They are as specified below:

• Applied Science Accreditation program (ASAC)
• Computing Accreditation Commission (CAC)
• Engineering Accreditation Commission (EAC)
• Engineering Technology Accreditation Commission (ETAC)

The institute which applies for the accreditation is assigned to one of the above four commissions and will then conduct an internal evaluation of its program and prepare a self-study report. The self-study includes documents how well the program is meeting the established accreditation criteria in multiple areas, such as their students, curriculum, faculty, administration, facilities, and institutional support.

• Faculty performance reports
• Student PO attainment reports
• Student activity reports
• Faculty research activities reports
• CO – PO mapping reports
