Abstract

The initiation of education programs and the accreditation of a collaborative mechanical engineering program under the ABET EC 2000 was discussed. The programs that were initiated consisted of bachelor degree programs in mechanical engineering and in chemical engineering. The preparations surrounding initial accreditation was discussed on three areas mainly the unique collaborative arrangement between the three distinct institutions, the need to distinguish a program under ABET criteria and the issues encountered in pursuing initial accreditation for a new program. The program was prepared to clearly demonstrate at the time of accreditation visit how it was different from the main campus program.
