Management System The ABET Engineering Criteria (and by association, the Engineering Technology,Applied Science and Computing Criteria) [2, 3, 4, and 5] define an educational qualitymanagement system (QMS). According to ISO 9000:2008, a QMS is “coordinated activities todirect and control an organization to achieve quality objectives,” where quality is defined as “thedegree to which a set of inherent characteristics fulfills a need or expectation.”[7] The QMSdescribed in ISO 9001:2008 and 2015[7, 8] is based on six quality principles: customer focus,leadership, engagement of people, process approach, improvement, evidence-based decision-making and relationship management. ISO 9000:2005 provides a model for a process-basedQMS that depicts the

, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) fields. One way toincrease the pool of students seeking engineering degrees is to reach out to those who are lessinclined to choose an engineering degree program. Many high school students have no exposureto engineers or to the engineering profession. Additionally, some students might beuncomfortable with the academic challenges a university engineering degree could pose and arealso unaware of the opportunities an engineering degree could provide. Many of these highschool students lack the self-efficacy or an intrinsic belief that they have “what it takes” tosucceed in engineering.ENGR 102 HS is a dual credit, University of Arizona (UA) introduction to engineering coursethat is taught by high school
