The architectural engineering curriculum that the university offers isaccredited by both the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) andmeets guidelines set out by the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) foraccreditation. However, there are drawbacks with respect to time when considering theprogram. The degree that KFUPM offers requires 139 credit hours plus a two monthinternships. Instead of the typical four year undergraduate program, this program alsorequires an additional fifth year 1. See Table 1 for the five year degree plan for KFUPM. As early as 1973, programs were already developing for a joint education betweencivil engineering and architecture. During the 1970’s, Robert Mark

These challenges include global competition, intelligent technology,and a constantly changing work environment. But the speed with which this civilizationcontinues to advance is fundamentally challenging the way in which engineering is practiced andthe way in which engineering and engineering technology students are educated. Technologicalbreakthroughs—the Internet and apple products most prominent among them—have effected anincreasingly global “workplace” in which the collaborative efforts of multinational teams areunhampered by geographical distance or time zones, and this global workplace in turn isintroducing new imperatives not only to engineering
