will eventually lead to their likely adoption. Because of the success ABET has experiencedwith its outcomes-based assessment process, the future focus for ABET evaluators will continueto be on attainment of the Student Outcomes (SO’s) enumerated in the new proposed criterion 3.The paper suggests ways to measure and evaluate attainment of SO’s using both direct andindirect measures. The final part of the paper will focus on the Program Educational Objectives(PEO’s) of criterion 2, and their relationship to both the SO’s and the institutional goals.KeywordsAccreditation, ABET Criteria.IntroductionIn the mid-1990’s, ABET developed a new set of criteria (called EC2000) for accreditingengineering degree programs.

Similar to the concept oforgan donation- every person would have the right to decide if their records are kept privatebetween themselves and their doctor(s) or if they can be used as part of a database to benefitfuture patients. With 95% of American adults supporting organ donation, there would mostlikely be a high percentage of people willing to participate in the use of medical databases [15].In order for these databases to be most efficient and beneficial it is important to be as userfriendly as possible.

All loads will be suspended from this eyebolt, and there must be a clear space directly below it to allow loads to be attached. Loads will be attached using an S-hook, and, if necessary, a 10 mm diameter metal rod extension. If, during loading, the bridge twists in such a way as to cause the bridge to touch the rod at any point other than the eyebolt, thus lending additional support, the bridge will be disqualified. 6) If the maximum vertical depth of the bridge, from the highest point in its structure to the lowest point, exceeds 25

Thecounselors grade the assignment during the morning, and return the assignments to thestudents at 1:30 PM each afternoon, at the problem session. The assignments are gradedas E for excellent above 90% correct; S for satisfactory, above 80% correct; and U forunsatisfactory for below 80% correct.

the dynamics of interaction between the fluidflow and the geometry of the airplane. Reliable operation of a computer depends partly on theefficiency with which heat is removed from the circuit board by the fluid flow introduced by thecooling fan(s). Efficient power plant operation depends heavily on the interaction between fluidflow (working fluid) and the heat and work interactions associated with the fluid. There are anumber of other engineering applications where fluid flow plays a significant role and so thestudent training in these discipline areas should have access to a good fluid flow experimentalfacility. The most common fluid flow facility suitable for this purpose is a wind tunnel.Problems in aerodynamics, heat transfer
