ABET limits its membership to technicalsocieties, currently 35 members, that represent related professions. The bulk of the work withinABET activities is done by volunteers from academia, government, and industry.5 The membersocieties nominate individuals to act as these volunteers, who are key participants in ABET’sacademic program peer-review process. Programs accredited by ABET range from the associatedegree to master degrees, depending on the accreditation commission. ABET is divided
