Engineering Program Accreditation Navigator
Align engineering curricula with ABET outcomes and organize accreditation evidence systematically
What You Can Do
You can systematically align your engineering program's curriculum with ABET's eleven student outcomes, organize compliance documentation, and build a defensible accreditation portfolio. This skill helps you track assessment data across multiple disciplines, identify gaps in evidence collection, and structure your continuous improvement narrative so accreditation teams see deliberate program development, not rushed documentation.
Features
correlate curricula to student outcomes (a-k) across courses and disciplines
organize documentation of student achievement with metadata tracking
verify alignment with ABET criteria before self-study submission
structure data-driven program changes with evidence trails
benchmark outcomes alignment across engineering departments
create compelling narratives from raw assessment data for accreditation reviewers
address ABET concerns with targeted evidence and remediation plans
pre-visit validation of documentation completeness and coherence
Example Output
Example 1: Outcomes Mapping Course ENG 301 (Thermodynamics) mapped to outcomes: (a) Apply math/physics, (e) Modern tool usage, (k) Broad education. Assessment method: exam performance, design project rubric. Pass rate: 87% exceeds outcome threshold.
Example 2: Deficiency Response Previous concern: "Insufficient documentation of outcome (d) - teamwork." Response: Added peer evaluation rubric to capstone projects, collected 3 years of data showing 92% of teams demonstrate effective collaboration, included student testimonials and project artifacts.
Example 3: Continuous Improvement Cycle FY2023 assessment identified weak performance in outcome (c) - design. Action: Redesigned junior design course with iterative prototype reviews. FY2024 data shows 15% improvement in design rubric scores across cohort.
